About
Who am I?
My name is Tamelia Hamilton and I have been qualified as a Registered General Nurse for over 22 years. I have been a Health Visitor (specialist community public health nurse) since 2012. I have also successfully completed a Speech and language level 3 Award in Higher Distinction.
It is through my work as a health visitor that I was able to see the impact that speech and language delay can have on families. I decided to utilise my skills of communicating with children in order to boost and strengthen language development. The benefits are highly rewarding for myself, parents but most importantly for the child.
Mission Statement
My mission is to encourage children to widen their speech and language abilities in order to communicate effectively.
Vision Statement
My vision is to increase a child’s full potential so they can build healthy relationships and have the ability to verbally express their needs and wishes in all life’s situations.
E-STIP Helps children who struggle to talk
Early Development
Becoming a parent is a natural and rewarding experience. Your child will experience many great developmental adventures that will shape and transform them into great human beings. However, the birth of a child is just the beginning of their journey, and often journeys can bring difficult situations.
Speech and Language
Nothing is more natural than speaking. So when a child begins to struggle with their speech and language, they are unable to express themselves effectively. This is very frustrating and often distressing for both child and parents.
Interactive Play
E-STIP was created and is designed to provide a private, bespoke individualised service that provides intensive support to children and parents in those crucial years of development, ages 0-5. E-STIP offers interactive play for children who struggle with their language development. Our primary focus is on helping children who are struggling to talk.
Make Teaching Fun
The aim is to divert the focus away from the difficulties they are experiencing and channelling it into interactive play. Play is the main area in which children learn. It is proven to have a hugely beneficial impact on children developing their speech and language. By incorporating fun into teaching, it allows for a more memorable experience.
The Learning Pathway
Repetitive techniques shall be incorporated into your child’s play on a one to one basis. In addition, progress charts and rewards will become a part of their learning pathway. Homework will be set as a standard and is an essential part of your child’s progress. This routine encourages the discipline of practice and helps parents get involved.
Individual Progress
It is important to know that E-STIP is not a medical, behavioural or diagnostic service. If you have any of these concerns, please consult the relevant professionals. You should also note that every child will progress differently due to individual obstacles or diagnoses. It will be necessary to inform of any diagnosis that your child may have or any assessments or interventions that awaits.
