The Speech Spatial and Qualities of Hearing Questionnaire modified for children (SSQ\u2010C) were completed by parental proxy pre\u2010operatively and at 3, 6, 9, 12, 18, and 24\u2009months post\u2010activation. Linear mixed models evaluated perceived benefits over the study period. Pearson correlations assessed the association between subjective report and performance on measures of word recognition with the CI alone and spatial hearing (speech recognition in spatially\u2010separated noise and sound source localization) in the combined condition (CI plus contralateral ear).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>For the SSQ\u2010C, parents reported significant improvements with CI use as compared to pre\u2010operative perceptions (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.001); improved perceptions were either maintained or continued to improve over the 2\u2010year post\u2010activation period.
