The relief to hand your child over to people you can really trust is such an ease. Sophie now has little sentences, better eye contact and much better comprehension ,all this, in the space of 5 months. I have no doubt in my mind that it is down to the CLDP.
If you suspect any communication delay please do not hesitate your child’s time is precious act fast, I could not recommend a better school.

My son attended CLDP for a year prior to play school. He has Down Syndrome. He was assigned a programme suited to his needs which was reviewed with us his parents and his early intervention team on a regular basis. I feel that the one-to-one tuition was the biggest advantage. Also he learned to sit and listen and be part of a group in a classroom environment. From removing his coat, taking his lunch and toilet training, Joan and the staff were all fantastic in giving him his independence. When he started play school the following year he was more than able to hold his own. CLDP gave him the best start for school life.

We were told at most of Jake’s appointments and assessments that it was more than likely that he would never talk and that we should come to terms with it. How wrong they were. Most of this down to Jake’s determination (stubbornness) and willingness to learn but a lot of his success is down to you guys. Your patience and understanding of him and your personalities are a gift that ye have. Words cannot describe what you have done for us over the past year and how you have changed not just Jake’s life but mine and Jonathan’s also. The support and guidance that you have given us is more than we could ever have hoped for.
