Philippa received her Bachelor of Health Science and Master of Occupational Therapy Practice at La Trobe University, Melbourne, and has since been engrossed in the wonderful world of paediatrics. Philippa began her occupational therapy journey working in community health in a rural setting. 

In this role she thrived upon the strong bonds developed with families. Philippa enjoyed supporting children with a range of challenges and adapting her practice to suit their unique cultural and family traditions. This has instilled in her a commitment to family-centred practice and a focus on targeting the goals that are most important to the child and their family.

Philippa has more recently enjoyed supporting children in private practice, schools, kindergartens, homes and clinic-based settings. She has a special interest in autism spectrum disorder, cerebral palsy, self-regulation, toileting and fine motor skills. In her spare time Philippa enjoys being active and enjoying nature. She values this highly in her practice with children and encourages the use of movement as a self-regulation tool in sessions. 

Meet Meagan, a vibrant new graduate from Australian Catholic University, where she earned her Bachelor of Occupational Therapy. Meagan brings a unique blend of enthusiasm and expertise to her role as a paediatric OT, championing the strengths of her clients with a focused, goal-oriented approach. 

Her sessions are infused with a dynamic passion for movement, an inspiration deeply rooted in her years of experience as a dance teacher. Beyond her professional endeavours, Meagan enjoys baking, walking her dog, and engaging in arts and crafts, hobbies that reflect her creative approach to therapy. She is dedicated to crafting engaging, supportive experiences that foster each child's individual path to growth and independence.
