#24: Helping children find their voice!

Kate Burgess joined Ruth this week, but who is Kate?


Owner of "we can commikate" and founder of "Pippin Speech" App, Kate talks candidly to Ruth about why she set up her independent practice post lockdown, and then how this lead to the creation of her app to support parents and caregivers with key tools to develop communication at home.


During this conversation Kate is open about how she is constantly learning and developing her skillset, also that her business will grow as children's needs develop. She wants to be that voice of "early intervention" for so many families.


Kate is a busy bee, due to juggling both these businesses alongside being a mummy of two!
