The Nurtured OT

A small private practice, passionate about supporting maternal health and early childhood development occupational therapy ✨

Our littlest family member joined us on Wednesday 22nd October 🥰

Thankyou for your patience while we navigate as a family of 4, and do the Mama, business owner/boss juggle.

Please also know that we won’t be sharing our girls names, or their faces on our social media to protect their privacy, but they will be making a regular occurrence as we share real life ❤️

Rounding out OT week, we asked our team to describe OT in just three (yes, just THREE) words! What a challenge!

Do any of these surprise you? Resonate with you?

We would love to hear the words you may use to describe OT?

✨ Why Did Our Team Decide to Become OT’s ✨

In honour of OT week, we asked our team why they decided to become an OT.

Swipe across to see Laura, Steph and Holly’s answers!

Our therapist friends - we would love to hear why you chose OT as your career also!

✨ Our Favourite Resources ✨

We asked the team what their top 3 resources were (paediatric edition) - and what a challenge it was to narrow it down to just 3?!

Swipe across to see Laura, Steph and Holly’s “favourite” (or in some of our cases not necessarily favourite but most used) resources!

Are there any there that are new to you? Or that are your favourite also?

Please share your favourite resources below - we love to explore new things to bring into our space!

✨ It’s Occupational Therapy Week ✨

This weeks marks Occupational Therapy Week (and yes, we are already a day late 🫠).

We are going to share a few of our favourite OT things this week, but thought we would start off with what actually is Occupational Therapy? We get asked this so very often, and find it hard to encompass all that we do in a quick sentence (or post)!

Did you know what Occupational Therapy was before you found us? Or the scope of some of the things we do?

We are so excited to welcome Laura to our team!

Laura is an experienced paediatric Occupational Therapist, who is returning to work following a period of maternity leave after the birth of her second little boy!
Laura will be working with us one day a week (on a Thursday).

A little bit about Laura:
✨ She has two young boys, who are 2 years and 1 year old
✨ She has a small dog called Elsie
✨ She loves playing games, video games, board games and dungeons and dragons
✨ She enjoys reading and is also part of a book club
✨ She loves musicals and live theatre

We are so happy and excited to welcome Laura to our team, and we hope you can give her a warm welcome if you see her around!

Look what has finally arrived!

Ive been patiently (impatiently) waiting for this book to arrive at my doorstep, and it finally has!

I’ve been following the work of and many of the incredible people who contributed to this book for a long long time, and can’t wait to see what their brilliant minds have pulled together!

Even though I’ve been working in Paediatrics for 10 years, maternal health and matrescence is a passion of mine (even more so since being on my own journey)! I CANNOT wait to deep dive into this book and share more about the offerings we have here at The Nurtured OT for mothers!

Now, to find the time between being a Mum, and juggling all the other balls to sit and have a read!

Did you know that I’m now a certified paediatric sleep and development specialist?!

I’ve recently finished a 12 month long certification through and

This incredible course is based around the principles of biological normal sleep, infant temperament, attachment and regulation (all the things I am passionate about already) - there will be no recommendations of crying it out or making your infant self settle before they are ready here!

I cannot wait to bring this element into the work we already do here at The Nurtured OT, with some new services landing in the coming months!

Have any questions about your child’s sleep or development? Please feel free to reach out and ask us any questions you may have while we are still in the process of building this element into The Nurtured OT!

22/09/2025

Thought it was finally time to share this with our wider community here at The Nurtured OT (and don’t worry our current families already know!).

In just a few short weeks, The Nurtured OT team is growing by another 10 fingers and 10 toes, with baby girl #2 due to join us in the world.

But, we have our incredible Holly holding down the fort while I’m having baby (and I’ll still be around via social media/phone/email once we’ve settled into life as the 4 of us) - plus maybe a sneaky little other surprise if things all work out.

Thankyou for your patience over the coming weeks/months.

Steph ✨
