The Importance of Early Hearing Tests for Children

Early hearing tests play a vital role in identifying any issues that could affect your child's speech, learning, and social development.  Addressing hearing problems early can greatly improve outcomes, helping your child reach their full potential. Totalcare Hearing is dedicated to providing expert care and support throughout this process.

What to Expect During a Child's Hearing Test

Hearing tests for children differ from testing an adult. Children’s hearing tests can be either a physical test or response-based test. The audiologist will determine the best method for conducting the hearing test based on the child’s age and ability.

Our hearing tests for kids are tailored to be child-friendly and stress-free:

Preliminary Consultation: Our audiologists start with a gentle consultation to understand your child's health history and any concerns you may have.

Engaging Assessments: Using games and interactive methods, we assess your child's hearing in a way that feels fun and engaging for them.

Immediate Support: Following the assessment, we discuss the results with you in detail, providing guidance and support on the next steps, if any are needed.

Recognising the Signs of Hearing Issues in Children

Early detection is key. Look out for signs that might indicate a hearing issue, such as:

• Does not respond to loud sounds or their name being called

• Your child does not turn towards the source of a sound

• Limited or poor speech

• Has difficulty with pronunciation and sounds

• Requests people to repeat their words or conversations frequently

• Difficulty with learning

• Frequently inattentive, especially in a classroom

• Speaks loudly

• Listens to digital devices and TV at levels louder than what others require

If you notice any of these signs, a hearing test is a crucial next step.
