What parents say

Children who feel understood

"Lucy has provided invaluable knowledge of dyslexia to our daughter, to the school, and to us. The sessions are completely tailored to her needs — not just academically but emotionally too. She's now not only reading with more confidence, but she wants to learn."

Andrea — parent of an 8-year-old with dyslexia

"Lucy understands that no two children learn the same way, especially when SEN is involved. The difference in his confidence has been remarkable."

Kate — parent of a 9-year-old with ADHD & dyslexia

"The sessions are adapted weekly to match how he's learning best. Finally, our son feels understood."

Ade — parent of an 8-year-old recently diagnosed

Early support matters

Should I get my child screened?

Early dyslexia screening can make a transformational difference. When learning differences are identified early, children receive the right strategies before difficulties affect their confidence or love of learning.

Screening replaces frustration and self-doubt with understanding and a clear way forward.

Dyslexia runs in the family
School have raised concerns about reading
Spellings are becoming a source of stress
Your child has stopped reading at home
You want to understand your child's needs better
