Family–Centered OT for Kids and their Families

“The world is a beautiful rainbow of different colours, and it won’t be whole without you. The universe needs your colour.”

Your child's journey

We are dedicated to empowering your child and family across all developmental areas including sensory processing, emotional regulation, school readiness and more.

What do we do?

In a custom-built space designed to foster imagination and interaction we can provide play opportunities in the indoors and outdoors. We aim to enhance relationships and build confidence, independence and life skills.

How does it work?

Each child is taken through a comprehensive assessment where parents are encouraged to be involved. Individual, group and holdiday sessions are also available.

Testimonials

Jodie really understands how to get the best out of even the most reluctant child, and has such a rich array of strategies and tools that she has shared with us as parents to support our children. Her knowledge and experience are equally matched with her positivity, we are so grateful to have Jodie supporting our family!

Jodie is an essential, and much loved, part of our support network. Her therapy is centred on care, understanding, vast knowledge, and a desire to see my child develop and thrive. The work Jodie has done with my child and our family has been invaluable, and we now see the results every single day. My child loves spending time with Jodie; he has fun with her, trusts her, and will often say Jodie may be able to help him find a solution to a challenging situation.

As a parent, I have learnt so much from Jodie and I am a much better mum and advocate for my child because of her support. She always takes time to explain things to help me better understand my child, and she models behaviours and strategies so I can use them. We are incredibly grateful to have Jodie as our OT. She celebrates wins with us, gives us hope during challenging times, and has made a significant positive difference to my child and our family.

We are really thrilled to be working with Jodie as Ivy's OT. Jodie is really attuned to Ivy and they have so much fun every week. Jodie is respectful, warm and always full of ideas. Jodie is consistently neuroaffirming in her practice and able to meet Ivy wherever she is at on any given day. Jodie brings out Ivy's strengths and gently challenges her with new activities to assist her with regulation and communication.
