Happy Easter from all of us at Helen Walker Occupational Therapy!

Today we’re celebrating not just Easter, but the beautiful moments we are so privileged to share with our clients and their families every single week. From creative activities and sensory play to meaningful connection, confidence building, and those little wins that are actually the biggest wins of all… this reel of some of our clients doing Easter activities is a glimpse into the heart of what we do

We feel incredibly grateful to walk alongside such amazing individuals, families, support coordinators, educators, and communities. Thank you for trusting us to be part of your journey. Your growth, your resilience, your joy, and your progress are what inspire us every day!

Easter is a time of renewal, hope, and connection, and we see those themes reflected so strongly in the work we do together.

Wishing you all a safe, joyful, and meaningful Easter filled with moments that matter 🐰

What a fantastic MDT and support work team meeting!!

OT Helen is seen here working closely with a client's PBSP (Positive Behaviour Support Practitioner), Speech Therapist, Day Centre Manager and full support work team! Delivering support worker coaching and education.

At HWOT, we work collaboratively to ensure our clients' have optimal therapy strategies in their sessions, the most co-ordinated supports to thrive and meet their goals, and less repetition of communication/stories/information giving.

Whilst we deliver OT and Social Work, we actively seek out and work together your team 🌈⭐.

For therapists and other clinicians seeking advice on how to do this within NDIS/private practice contexts, we offer training and supervision on how to do the same.

We love what we do together with you, and it showsπŸ©·πŸ’™πŸ’š.

With thanks, as always, to My Horizon for facilitating the training session and implementing such a collaborative way of working.

As we move into the Easter period, we wanted to let our wonderful clients, families, support coordinators, schools, kindies and community partners know that Helen Walker Occupational Therapy will be closed on Friday 3 April and Monday 6 April for the Easter public holidays.

Our team will return to normal operations after the long weekend and we will respond to any messages, emails or enquiries as soon as we are back.

We truly appreciate your patience during public holiday periods as it allows our clinicians time to rest, recharge, and spend time with their own families so we can continue to show up fully for the people we support.

Thank you, as always, for being part of our HWOT community and for the trust you place in us.

Wishing everyone a safe, peaceful and happy Easter filled with connection, rest, and a little bit of chocolate too. 🐰

We had SOOOOO much fun celebrating the Feb/March cluster of our HWOT team birthdays this month πŸ₯³.

It is always a pleasure getting together as a team outside work to truly connect, natter for Australia, Wales, England and South Africa (we are an eclectic team!) and have some great belly laughs as always🩷.

In true form we had to pick learning a new activity (can we fit this within learning a new Occupation?πŸ€”)...this time was a Cocktail Making Masterclass! Definitely a cup-filler for us! And a planning, sequencing, coordination and fine motor task for sure, haha!

We were sorry to miss our lovely practice assistant Krystal but sent her lots of Birthday love.

Can't wait for the August/September birthday cluster!

21/03/2026

We were so excited to receive our new resources from , thoughtfully designed to align with your baby’s visual development. These beautifully made items are perfect for supporting tummy time, encouraging early play skills, and fostering meaningful moments of connection. The waterproof book is an added bonus β€” ideal for bath time or messy play adventures.

We’ll also be incorporating these products into sessions with some of our older clients, particularly those with developmental delays, sensory processing differences, or visual impairments, as the high‑contrast designs offer fantastic therapeutic value.

We’re especially eager to explore the High Contrast Sensory Water Mat β€” a brilliant tool for promoting core stability, motor development, visual engagement, and a whole lot of curiosity.

Plenty of fun times ahead!

OT Tash and Social Worker Bec had a fantastic time completing the basic Key Word Sign workshop in Brisbane last weekend πŸ«ΆπŸ‘.

We always strive to integrate any Speech Therapist recommended communication strategies into our clients' sessions.....and being able to provide additional and supplementary means to communication is pivotal to us delivering our best service and supporting clients to reach their goals.

This course is something every clincian on our team undertakes, alongside training from Speech Therapists in the use of AAC and working collaboratively/delivering joint sessions with other Allied Health Providers on your team.

Feel free to test your HWOT OT or social worker this week if you're an active user of Key Word Sign 🀣🀫.

Thank you, as always, to the wonderful Speechie Debbie Burmester (A Place to Sprout). We love love love your training, guidance and heart for what you do πŸ©·πŸ’šπŸ’™

Today we celebrate the incredible women who contribute so much to our families, workplaces and communities.

At Helen Walker Occupational Therapy we’re grateful for the women who lead, support, nurture, advocate and inspire in so many different ways every day.

We also recognise and respect the diverse experiences and identities within our community, and the importance of creating spaces where everyone feels safe, valued and able to belong.

This International Women’s Day is a chance to pause and appreciate the strength, care and contribution of women everywhere, and to continue working toward a world where respect, inclusion and opportunity are available to all. πŸ©·πŸ©΅πŸ’™

Today we are celebrating the lovely Jess on her birthday!πŸŽ‚

Although Jess has only been with us since early February, it already feels like she has been part of our HWOT family for much longer. From the very beginning she stepped into her role with a calm confidence and genuine warmth that has made such a beautiful impression on both our team and the families she supports.

Jess brings such thoughtfulness to her work. She has a quiet and supportive way of making clients feel safe, heard and understood and that is something truly special 🌈. We see the care she pours into her sessions, the way she prepares, the way she listens, and the way she advocates. So much planning, consideration and reflection behind the scenes. It is clear she is exactly where she is meant to be.

We are so grateful she chose to join our little corner of the world. Our team is richer for her kindness, her bubbliness, her professionalism and her heart.

Jess, we hope this year ahead is filled with growth, joy, meaningful moments and a few well deserved treats along the way. Thank you for the energy and compassion you bring to HWOT every day. πŸ’™πŸ©·πŸ’š

Happy Birthday, Krystal!

Today we celebrate the steady, capable and quietly incredible woman who keeps so much of HWOT flowing behind the scenes.

Krystal brings a calm presence into the administrative space that allows everything to feel ordered and supported and her organisation, reliability and warmth are such a gift to our team.

Krystal, we hope your birthday is filled with good food, beautiful moments and time with the people you love most. You deserve to feel celebrated today and always! πŸ©·πŸ’™πŸ’š

Wishing the happiest of birthdays to our wonderful practice manager Yvette πŸŽ‚πŸ₯³.

Yvette has been with us 4 years this year -during this time she has been such an incredible support to myself as the business owner, to our team and to our clients.

She is the literal glue behind the scenes, the strength for business support as an owner and the kind, practical responsive 'can do' for our team and clients.

We all adore the energy, joy and light that you bring into our lives and our work....and thank you for all that you do for us and our clients.

Plus, how could we do Social media reels without you! 🩷

Celebrating you today Yvette 🎈

When diary planning goes old school!...3 laptops, 2 OTs, a practice assistant and some Butcher Paper πŸ’ͺπŸ–.

Krystal, our awesome practice assistant, hard at work today planning and booking in our new OT Jess' clients.

Nothing beats a bit of floor-time and body movement to change it up πŸ€—πŸ™Œ.

Sometimes it doesn't always fall to plan..... but know that as a mobile provider we do work super duper hard in the background to book appointments in the locations and times that meet our clients needs. And also to work within our therapist's lifestyles and chosen work routines.

Sometimes it is a good old game of Tetris on paper. There 'may' have been coffee out of shot β˜•οΈπŸ«’.
