KidsAbility in Cayman

04/02/2026

Thank you to St Ignatius Catholic School for inviting our Occupational Therapist Arianna McCoy to present in celebration of Black History Month through the lens of Caymanian history and experience.

Arianna spoke to 270 students about her journey in her talk, “Staying, Leaving and Coming Back: Education, Mobility and Giving Back,” sharing how pursuing education abroad and returning home has shaped her purpose and passion for giving back.

We are so proud to see Caymanian representation inspiring the next generation.

We were so happy to take part in the career fair today.

At KidsAbility, we are proud to support children and families through speech therapy, occupational therapy, and psychology, and it was wonderful to share these career paths with students.

A special highlight was our Occupational Therapist, Arianna McCoy, who presented about her journey as a Caymanian entering the field of occupational therapy. We are incredibly proud of the passion and dedication she brings to her work and the example she sets for students considering this path.

We loved meeting students who are curious and excited about exploring careers in helping professions. The future of paediatric therapy is bright 🌟

Supporting Fine Motor Development in Young Children
Practical, everyday strategies for parents and nannies of children ages 0–6

Wednesday, January 21, 2026
5:30–7:00 PM
KidsAbility Paediatric Therapy Clinic

Presented by:
Lise du Plessis, Occupational Therapist

Perfect for parents and nannies. If you care for young children and want to support their independence, confidence, and readiness for school, this session is for you.

Fine motor skills are essential for everyday life skills such as feeding, dressing, drawing, writing, and play. Strong hand skills support success both at home and in the classroom.

This practical, hands-on workshop will help parents and nannies understand how fine motor skills develop and how to support them through simple activities built into daily routines. No special equipment is required.

What parents and nannies will learn:
• How fine motor skills develop from infancy through the early school years
• Key building blocks including strength, coordination, bilateral skills, and hand dominance
• Common signs that a child may be struggling with fine motor skills
• How posture, core strength, and sensory input support hand skills
• The connection between fine motor skills, self-care, and school readiness

Practical strategies for home and daily care:
• Play-based activities using everyday household items
• Easy ways to build hand strength, coordination, and endurance
• Fine motor support during mealtimes, play, dressing, and daily routines
• How to adapt activities for different ages and abilities
• How parents and nannies can encourage independence without pressure

You will leave with:
• A clear understanding of fine motor development milestones
• Simple strategies you can use immediately
• Increased confidence in supporting children’s independence
• Tools to turn everyday routines into opportunities for learning and growth

This workshop is free to attend and sponsored by KidsAbility.
Bring your questions and join a supportive, practical session designed especially for parents and nannies.

Thank you for making the time to collaborate, learn, and strengthen the bridge between healthcare and education in support of children and families.

💙 Collaboration like this makes a meaningful difference.
