Physiotherapy that comes to you.
As a mobile paediatric physiotherapy service, I bring sessions to your child in the environments where they feel most comfortable and where they spend their everyday lives.
Whether that's at home, school, childcare, the playground, out in the community or in the pool, sessions are tailored to your child's individual needs, interests and goals.
One of the things I love about mobile physiotherapy is being able to work on skills in the places children actually use them. It allows therapy to become part of everyday life, rather than something that only happens during an appointment.
I'll also share practical strategies and activities with parents and caregivers that can be incorporated into everyday routines, giving children more opportunities to practise and build on their skills between sessions.

Stronger together
I believe some of the best outcomes happen when everyone around a child works together.
A child's support network can include so many important people, from parents and siblings to physiotherapists, occupational therapists, speech pathologists, teachers and support workers. Everyone brings something different, and I believe it's important that we're all working towards the same goals.
I love building relationships with families and other professionals, sharing ideas and working together to make sure everyone feels informed, supported and involved. By keeping communication open and working towards shared goals, we can create a more consistent approach to supporting a child's development, both during and beyond therapy sessions.
How can I help?
Every child has their own strengths, abilities and goals. Whether we're working on building new skills, improving strength or finding ways to make everyday activities easier, physiotherapy is tailored to what matters most to your child and family.
Strength, balance and coordination
Building strength, stability, balance and coordination to help children feel more confident in their movement and abilities.
Disability and complex paediatric care
Supporting children with disabilities and additional needs to work towards their individual goals, develop functional skills and participate in the activities they love.
Equipment and assistive technology
Helping children access the right equipment and supports to improve their mobility, positioning, comfort and independence.
Injury rehabilitation
Helping children recover from injuries, rebuild strength and confidence, and return to the activities they enjoy.
Hydrotherapy
Using the water as a fun and supportive environment to work on movement, strength, balance and functional skills. Hydrotherapy can be explored for children of all abilities where it's clinically appropriate and beneficial.
