In early December I had the pleasure of cutting the ribbon to open Bite and Babble. Bite and Babble is a paediatric speech pathology clinic in Narellan servicing the growing south‑west, including my electorate of Leppington. The clinic provides a holistic approach to health care from birth to high school. Director Madasyn Baldasarre and the team provide a range of services, from assessment to individual therapy and group programs. Mady is a certified practising speech pathologist and was inspired by the strong women around her growing up to take the plunge and open a small business catering to the needs of local youth. Many of those inspiring women were there in attendance, along with Mady's family and friends. I count myself amongst that group, having known Madasyn her entire life and seen her years of hard work firsthand. A fellow product of Bonnyrigg High School, I am immensely proud to see her grow into a smart and successful businesswoman and wish her and the team at Bite and Babble much success.
