The sheer panic in the middle of an ACE when I say “Sam says today is ______” What day was it yesterday”
Not sure it will ever get easier to remember the day 🤣🤪 #mySLTday

First time implementing a high-tech AAC device for a child with a speech sound disorder. The change in the whole family since receiving this device has been amazing to witness & we’re only at the start. Feeling grateful to be an SLT - I love my job! #mysltday #aac #supercore50

@LucyBalchin1 Glad to hear you’ve found your sparkle again! It’s such a rollercoaster at the moment and so hard to not be able to just do our job “normally” x

[Rachel Higson @HigsonRachel]

@JillBrennanSLT Definitely! Would take the travel any day!!

[Rachel Higson @HigsonRachel]

@Caroline_SLT Probably a 10 - found a secure spot for now but there are still (metaphorical) places to go and jobs to be competed! 😂

What a great resource for supervision! Me and my uni pals would often use this resource for well-being chats, now to remember to use it in supervision! 🙌🏼

#Supervision Resource 1: targeted to help discuss Health&Wellbeing which is SUPER important in these crazy times❓Which one are you in the ‘Blob Tree’ ❓🤔 At the end of today, I’m number 11 or 12 after some great joint working & #FEES Ax on the respiratory wards 💃🏻💃🏻

Lessons learned: don’t throw a full cup of tea over your work laptop when wfh...1 hour on hold to IT and we’re only half way through the calls in front of me 😩 #mySLTday

[Rachel Higson @HigsonRachel]

I had a dream that I lost my palate.
I was looking everywhere and couldn’t find it. I was walking around with a peg on my nose. #mysltdream 😂😂

[Rachel Higson @HigsonRachel]

@littleSLTbubble Aww pal! I’ve only just seen this 🥰🤗 I feel honoured! Sounds like Coco Camel had a good birthday 😂

[Rachel Higson @HigsonRachel]

One of my besties @LucyBalchin1 has started a new thing 😱 I’m proud of her and her new project so go check it out 🙌🏼💖

[The Little Speech Bubble @littleSLTbubble]

Hello! My name is Lucy and I have created The Little Speech Bubble during the COVID-19 pandemic as a place to share resources to help children and young people with their speech therapy. Everyone is welcome in my virtual bubble! ☺️ #mySLTday #speechtherapy

Apart from this video being the CUTEST thing ever, why was cluster reduction the main thing I noticed...I need to get a life 😂😂

[The Prince and Princess of Wales @KensingtonRoyal]

Sir David Attenborough, we've got some questions for you...🌍🕷️🐒

[Rachel Higson @HigsonRachel]

@LucyBalchin1 Miss you SO much! 💖

[Rachel Higson @HigsonRachel]

@LucyBalchin1 I suggested it was just a wiggle she told me she didn’t think it was called that 😂😂😂

[Rachel Higson @HigsonRachel]

It’s been a rough week, but my last child absolutely saved the week:
Me: Any questions before I go?
Mum: not from me, what about you?
Child: erm, erm erm yes actually I do... what do you call it when you move your whole body to the left and the right like this... 😂 #mySLTday
