About us
Superhero Paediatrics is a paediatric clinic, located in Tullamarine, in the North Western suburbs of Melbourne. We currently offer Speech Pathology services for children 18 and under, for a range of different services. From assessments to therapy, find out about what we offer, at our Services page.
We can also refer you to our experienced in-house Occupational Therapists. Find out about what our skilled OTs offer, at our Services page.
As a privately run and family-centered clinic, we are proud to put our clients and their families at the forefront of our therapy. Clients and their families are actively involved in assessment and therapy, as well as goal planning and decision making.
Why Superhero Paediatrics?
At Superhero Paediatrics, we strive to deliver neuroaffirming, quality care to all of our clients, and we wish for them to find their identity and their own superpowers. We support our clients to advocate for themselves and their needs, as well as encouraging them to use their superpowers to be their best selves. We also work alongside the superheroes, their families and loved ones, their educators and educational support staff, as well as any other important people, to equip and strengthen their tool-kits to support our superhero clients.
Meet your Speech Pathologist
Julie Pavaday
Hi there!
I'm a Speech Pathologist and Director of Superhero Paediatrics. I am a passionate and enthusiastic therapist, and I thrive to see my clients and their families meet their goals, no matter how small.
With experience in many practice areas, including early language/late talkers, play, literacy, social and pragmatic skills, language and speech, I would be delighted to work with you and your family. I have worked with a varied caseload, including children between 4 and 18, as well as those with, but not limited to, Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), Developmental Language Disorder (DLD), Global Developmental Delay (GDD), Articulation and Phonological Disorders and Speech Sound Disorders (SSD).
While the majority of my work is face to face at our Tullamarine clinic, I also enjoy working via Telehealth and seeing my clients in their childcare/kindergarten/school settings.
Onsite Occupational Therapists
At our Tullamarine clinic, there is an onsite Occupational Therapist who is experienced in assessment and therapy of gross and fine motor skills, sensory, emotional regulation, social skills and more!
The OT also offers childcare/kindergarten/school visits.
