We help children
reach their potential
Mel is a team of specialists who help children develop, learn new skills and become more independent.
We take time to understand each child and build an individual support plan based on modern, evidence-based approaches. We work with children with a range of developmental needs and help parents better understand what their child needs and how to support them at every stage. We are based in Kemerovo and help families find solutions that suit their child.
every session is
a small step forward
Learning difficulties
We help children overcome difficulties with reading, writing, maths and keeping up with the school curriculum.
Social difficulties
We develop communication skills, interaction with peers and adapting to a group.
Behavioural difficulties
We work with behavioural challenges and help children build self-regulation and self-control.
Speech development
Starting and developing speech, building phrases, correcting pronunciation and support for delayed speech development.
An individual approach
We take each child's development into account and build our work around their strengths, current needs and their own pace.
Support for children with special needs
We help children with autism (ASD), developmental delays, speech delays and ADHD develop speech, attention, thinking, communication and independence. Each programme is tailored to the child's needs and abilities.
What we offer
We help children develop essential skills, overcome difficulties and discover their own abilities. Every child gets an individual programme based on their age, development, current needs and strengths. Our goal is not just to hold sessions, but to understand what the child needs, choose the right areas of work and set out a clear plan of support — so the child can steadily master new skills and make visible progress.

Speech therapistWhat parents say
“I'm grateful to Lena and Marina for getting my daughter talking so quickly. In less than six months she is already saying difficult words and short sentences. It's also great that the sessions work on many things at once — including concentration, so school and homework will be easier later, not just speech. Thank you, too, for answering all my questions. With professional answers that I could use with my daughter, it became easier to connect with her. Thank you!”
“I want to thank the specialists at the centre: they eased my worries about my son's development. Some things about him concerned me, but they explained that it's normal. I also brought my daughter for a school-readiness assessment, and it turned out she's ready, so we're happily starting first grade! Thank you for being specialists who help and support.”
“Friends recommended the centre, so we came for a consultation on whether our child was ready for school — and decided to keep going! Our child loved going; the sessions are very engaging: logic, thinking, focus, coordination! We were very happy!”
Frequently asked questions
We work with children from the age of 2. Each programme is tailored to the child's age and development.
It depends on the child's age and the service: from 30 minutes for little ones to 60 minutes for school-age children. An assessment takes 60 to 90 minutes.

No referral is needed — you can come to us directly. If you have reports from other specialists, we recommend bringing them to the first consultation.
It varies and depends on the child's age, the nature and severity of the difficulties, how regular the sessions are and how involved the family is.
The first results usually appear gradually, as the child attends regularly and masters new skills.
The specialist tracks progress during sessions and through follow-up assessments.
Yes, parents are welcome at the first sessions. After that the specialist will advise — some children find it easier to work without their parents, while some programmes require parents to take part.
