Speech and language therapy focuses on supporting children with one of the most important skills we develop as humans; communication. They help a child to attach meaning to language, and to express themselves effectively in order to understand, and be understood by, others. A speech therapist may also be trained to help a child who struggles with the physical task of eating.

A speech therapist can assess for, diagnose, and treat a wide range of communication differences. They can also provide information, and training, in alternative forms of communication (AAC) when a child is physically unable to produce speech that matches their understanding of language.

Senior Speech & Language Therapist

Isabel Tan Cjinh Ping

I am a creative pediatric Speech and Language Therapist from Singapore. I attended the University of Queensland in Australia where I completed a Bachelors of Speech Pathology in 1999.

In the earlier part of my career, I worked in NUH, KK Women’s and Children’s Hospital and Child Guidance Clinic. After that, I worked in a local school for children with special needs for ten years. Currently, in Kaleidoscope, I aim to help children to be better communicators and focus on enabling children to have sufficient language skills to meet their communication and academic needs.

I have a special interest in working with school-aged children and guiding them in closing the gaps they may have in their language and communication. I believe that rapport is crucial between a therapist and a child and I do my utmost to ensure there is a lot of laughter in my sessions!

Speech & Language Therapist

Anika Burrowes

I’m Anika and I’m a Speech and Language Therapist from the UK. I completed an undergraduate degree in Language, Literacy and Communication at The University of Manchester before qualifying in 2016 with a postgraduate degree in Speech and Language Sciences at University College London. I am registered with the Health and Care Professions Council in the UK and the Allied Healthcare Professions Council in Singapore.

I worked for 3 years in the National Health Service (NHS) in the UK with children of pre-school and school age with speech sound difficulties, language difficulties and social communication needs. I also worked with children with specific diagnoses including Global Developmental Delay and Autism. I have experience in providing therapy in clinics, educational settings, at home and through teletherapy.

Senior Speech & Language Therapist,
Clinical lead for Speech & Fluency

Isabel (Liza) Baccay

I am a speech and language therapist with over 27 years of clinical experience, yet I still look for the “gleam in the eye” and those a-ha moments when a child revels in the discovery of something new. It is truly magical.

I have a special interest in language development, speech sound difficulties and social language development. I recognise the importance of sensory processing in the development of gestures, understanding of language and in speech, thus I am working towards my certification in sensory integration.

I enjoy working with families and I thoroughly enjoy having them in the SLT sessions.

See you around Kaleidoscope!

Senior Speech Language Therapist

Carline Tan

I am a bilingual speech language therapist who has been working with preschool and school-aged children for the past 6 years. I began my career at KK Women’s and Children’s hospital where I saw children with a wide range of speech and language diagnoses. I was also a member of ECHO (Early Childhood Holistic Outcomes) Technical assistance team, providing training and coaching services to early intervention professionals in early intervention centres. I then went on to work in local early intervention centres and private practice.

Although clinical work is my passion, I also enjoy contributing actively to my profession. I have conducted research and presented papers both locally and overseas. An example is a presentation at the Singapore Allied Health Conference on my research into Telepractice: Training and Coaching of Early Intervention Professionals in Singapore During COVID.

I believe strongly in building trusting, collaborative relationships with the families I support and have been recognised for this with a gold medal from the Singapore Health Quality Service Awards, and a bronze medal from the KKH Service from the Heart Awards.

I consider myself to be a therapist who is child-centred with an emphasis on delivering services that support a child’s right to respectful, strengths-based therapy.

In addition to being a busy therapist, I am a mother to a toddler. This has deepened my understanding, and appreciation, of family-centred practice.

Senior Speech & Language Therapist

Alia Contractor

I am a Speech and Language Therapist and a hands on mother of three.

I qualified as a Speech and Language Therapist in 1999 from the UK followed by an MSc in Audiology (Hearing Sciences) and a further qualification in Clinical Audiology.

I started my career with the National Health Service (NHS) in the UK and have worked in various healthcare settings, schools (mainstream/special needs), early years development centres and client homes.

Since then I have lived and worked in several countries around the world.I am experienced at working with all ages from very young children to the elderly; however I believe my true calling is working with children and helping them overcome their communication difficulties so that they can fully access all the opportunities life offers.

I believe that each child is unique, with their individual set of abilities, challenges, personalities, preferences and rates of development.

I celebrate this uniqueness and tailor my therapy in order to accommodate individual differences and maximise their potential. I believe in making the sessions fun, creative and engaging, while delivering structured and evidence based treatment.

My approach is flexible, compassionate, positive and inclusive. I am experienced at working both individually and as a member of a multidisciplinary team. I strongly believe that a child's progress is optimized by involving carers, family members and other professionals and educators in the child’s life.

Having grown up in a bilingual environment myself, I am well aware of the intricacies of children growing up with multiple languages.

I am experienced at working with children with a wide range of speech and language delays/disorders, specific language impairment, phonological delay/disorder, stammering, voice disorders, attention deficit, selective mutism, autism spectrum disorder,hearing difficulties, learning difficulties, rare genetic syndromes and other difficulties.

I cherish the energy, unpredictability and humour children bring into our lives! Having two daughters and a son myself I am well aware of the mechanics of little people and how to help them get the best out of themselves. Childhood is an incredible journey sometimes, a bit challenging but always interesting and I feel truly blessed to be able to share this with so many children.

Having the passion for engaging children of all ages in learning and development, I strive in using a family-centered approach to provide therapy holistically to my young clients.

Charisse Evangelista

I am Charisse, a Speech and Language Therapist from the Philippines. I obtained my Bachelor's Degree in Speech Pathology from the University of the Philippines Manila in 2004. In the same year I began practicing in private therapy clinics and special education preschools where I had a wonderful journey with different clients and their families who along the way had touched my heart deeply.

My passion lies in working with pre-school and school age children to help them maximize their learning potential and support them in their academic and social needs. I am a firm believer that each child is created uniquely with their own sets of limitations and gifts. While these can't be changed, focusing on limitations will only put them in boxes but exploring their gifts will open countless doors.

Catherine Hu, Mother of Kayler Kwek (2 years old)

I’m elated to share that the therapy sessions had helped my child make vast improvement in his speech within a short span of 2 months. Am very grateful to my therapist, Isabel Tan. Her expertise in identifying and understanding the child’s needs help in curating the right activity for each session. My child is also very comfortable with her since Day 1 of the session!

Conor's mom

Kaleidoscope was a safe and supportive environment for my family, to get started with the speech therapy for my little one. From day one, they were open, supportive, and helpful in everything they could. Anika is super experienced and kind, she loves to help the whole family and of course, the child.

I'm super grateful to have her in our team
