RE-SHARED

Mentors and Mentees: Are you an OT in community paediatric practice and have a desire to contribute to the professional development of paediatric therapists?

We are seeking OTs who providing mentoring, and OTs receiving mentoring, to participate in focus groups to review a draft evidence-based paediatric mentorship framework. Participating in this research will allow for revision of the framework to ensure it meets the current mentorship needs of therapists, and is relevant to current contexts.

If you would like to participate, we would welcome your input through an online focus group.
This will require 1 hour of your time. Olivia Jackson is conducting this study as a basis for completion of a PhD at the University of Sydney.

For more information and/or to express your interest please see Participant Information Statement and Consent Form

Week 1 of our OT Paeds Social Skills Group is done and dusted! 🎉🌈

Across Wednesday, Thursday & Friday, we made the most of the big grass area at the park next door to our Woolooware clinic 🌳☀️ while working on important social skills! The group practiced 🤝 turn taking, 🧠 working as a team, and 💪 building confidence in social settings through fun, movement-filled activities.

So amazing to see smiles, teamwork, and growing confidence all around! 🥰👏

We can’t wait to keep the fun going next week! 💛✨

🌍 International Day of People with Disability 🌎

Today we celebrate inclusion, accessibility, and the amazing strengths of children and adults of all abilities. 💛

✨ Did you know?
• 1 in 6 Australians live with a disability
• Disability can be physical, sensory, cognitive, or developmental
• Inclusion isn’t about “fitting in”, it’s about creating environments where everyone belongs 💫

At OT PAEDS, we’re proud to support children to participate in play, school, friendships, and everyday routines in ways that feel safe, joyful, and empowering. 💙💛

Let’s listen, learn, and make space for every child’s unique journey.

📢 Important Clinic Update

You may have seen recent reports about asbestos being detected in some batches of kinetic sand. As always, the safety and well-being of the children and families who visit our clinic is our top priority. 💛

For this reason, we have removed all kinetic sand from our therapy spaces effective immediately.

We know kinetic sand is a much-loved sensory tool, and we’ll be replacing it with a range of safe, fun, and engaging alternatives to continue supporting sensory exploration and fine motor development.

Thank you for your understanding and ongoing support as we prioritise a safe environment for every child.

If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out. 💬

— The OTPS Team ✨

🌼 R U OK? Day 2025 🌼

At OTPAEDS, we know that supporting a child with a disability can bring so much joy, but it can also feel overwhelming at times. 💛 Today is a gentle reminder that it’s okay to not be okay. You don’t have to carry everything on your own.

Starting conversations can make a big difference. Asking “Are you OK?” and truly listening can help families feel seen, supported, and connected. 💬✨

We’re here for our families—always ready to walk alongside you with compassion, practical strategies, and resources. You’re never alone in this journey.

✨ Last Friday, OTPAEDS hosted an education session on 0–3 years child development for our wonderful team! ✨
We were lucky to have special guest OT Lisa join us despite being on maternity leave 💕 She brought along her gorgeous 3-month-old daughter who was the best addition to our education. It was such a valuable (and heart-warming 🥰) session, and the team loved it! 💜
