Jess Joubert

Owner / Speech Therapist

I have grown up being involved in the disabled community with my brother having Down Syndrome. My parents have been active members of the disabled community since he was born. It was through this exposure that I developed my passion for helping persons with special needs.

I qualified as a Speech Therapist from UKZN in 2020 and completed part of my community service at RK Khan Hospital and part at Edendale Hospital.

I have a heart for families and community and building connections with everyone I get the opportunity to work with.
