Meet our amazing Director, Allied Health Manager and Senior OT, Rosanna ✨
With an incredible depth of knowledge and experience, Rosanna is the go-to clinical support for our team. Her leadership ensures our clinicians feel confident and our families feel truly supported.
What is your role?
I’m an Occupational Therapist by trade and co-founded BillyLids Therapy with my sister, Rachelle. I still see a small caseload of clients, but I spend much of my time supporting our team through management, mentoring, and clinical guidance.
Why did you become an OT?
I was introduced to occupational therapy as a teenager and was immediately drawn to how creative and child-centred the work was. I loved seeing how the OT really celebrated each child's individuality and built on their strengths - all through play and practical problem solving. In a full-circle moment, my final paediatric supervisor at university was the same OT I had observed all those years earlier.
Favourite part of your job?
Collaborating within a multidisciplinary team, playing alongside kids — and getting to wear matching outfits with my big sister every day. Six-year-old me would be thrilled (Rachelle wasn't so keen on matching outfits when we were kids!).
Favourite resource?
Assistive technology and creative play. I love problem-solving access solutions with children — from switches and wheelchair access to getting around their own home more easily. I also love being creative with loose-parts play using everyday items from around the kitchen, wooden trinkets and craft bits and bobs.
Favourite area to work with?
Supporting families of children with complex disabilities early in their journey — bringing the right team together, organising equipment, connecting them with their community, and setting children up to thrive.
