Aan die einde van die jaar kyk ons terug en reflekteer met dankbaarheid oor suksesse, uitdagings en groei. Al is daar altyd spasie vir verbetering, vier ons elke klein oorwinning van die kinders wat in 2025 oor ons pad gekom het. 🏆 Dis miskien nie oorwinnings wat op die verhoog erken word nie, maar ons weet van al die tyd, trane en harde werk wat ingesit is.

We salute you as parent(s) for the dedication and effort put into endless therapy days and trying to keep up with additional inputs at home. 💚 Thank you for the trust you put in us as therapists and thank you for continuously believing in your child's potential. ⭐

May you and your family find true rest during this festive season. May you see this year's disappointments as oppurtunities to grow and may you celebrate special moments with the ones you love. 🎇

The practice is officially closed and will open again on the 7th of January. You are still more than welcome to contact us via what's app by using he following numbers:

*World prematurity day 2025*

The World Health Organisation advocates for healthy beginnings that can bring about hopeful futures. Every child deserves a fair chance at life, starting from the very first moments they come into this world.
Children’s brains develop rapidly and can be influenced by their surroundings. The first 1000 days of a child’s life can set the course for the rest of their journey into childhood. For a baby born prematurely, these first 1000 days is even more important as extra care is required to meet their specific needs.

The multi-disciplinary team, including the Occupational Therapist, play a vital role in ensuring that the medical, nutritional, developmental and emotional needs of a premature baby are met. Early intervention - starting in the hospital/NICU is of utmost importance to give each baby a fair start in life.

A special shout-out to all our warrior babies who show us the meaning of true resilience and strength 💜💜

Many people are shocked to learn that Occupational Therapists work with newborns, as well as with older infants!

It's been on my mind for quite a long time to make a post about the little ones. The problem is...once I get started, I might not stop soon😉

By die praktyk het ons 'n besondere groot passie vir intervensie van die baba - van dag 1 af - en veral die lyfies wat in NICU opeindig. 👣

Navorsing bewys oor-en-oor dat die grootste verskil in die kind se ontwikkeling gemaak kan word indien hulle so vroeg as moontlik in terapie gesien kan word. 🪅

Time & again we've picked up neurological red flags during infant screenings where we can provide specialized intervention in order to minimize possible challenges in development and to support the family on the road ahead.🚨

Unfortunately, we have also experienced the flipside of the coin where children missed out on early intervention and then it becomes really hard to shift the focus from "improving" to "maintaining".

Indien jy as ouer dus oóit wonder wanneer die beste tyd is om raad te kry by 'n Arbeidsterapeut - eerder vroeër as later. Indien jy met jou hande in die hare in die NICU sit, onthou dat jy nie die pad op jou eie hoéf te stap nie en dat daar 'n span professionele mense daar buite is wat dit stap-vir-stap saam jou kan doen. 🤱

The goal of this post is not to carry over theoretical facts, but if you do have the need for more information, you are more than welcome to contact us.

Die VIERDE- en LAASTE kwartaal is op ons! 😬
Die jaar het so vinnig verby gegaan dat dit amper onwerklik is om te d**k dis alweer middel Oktober! Dit beteken die einde van die jaar is naby en almal se energie vlakke is laag, maar die begin van die kwartaal beteken ook dat elkeen van ons nuwe kanse kry. 🌻

Ons wens elke onderwyser, leerder, ouer en familie, alle sterkte toe vir die laaste kwartaal van 2025! Mag ons elke oggend met nuwe moed opstaan en tot die einde toe ons beste gee!📜🎉

During this term, remember that your child is unique, special and a treasure to be celebrated.🩷 Prioritize quality time with your child and try to focus on his/her strong points, rather than constantly seeing the challenges.🏆

We are calling on everyone in the Mossel Bay area to help put a smile on a child's face this festive season. Please share this post with everyone you know.
Less than 50% of our dedicated boxes have been pledged so we need your help! Please visit their website to register as a donor and follow the simple steps: https://santashoebox.org.za/donate/

These kids deserve a little cheer at the end of the year :-)

Teachers are the ones who ignite the spark of becoming a scientist, a doctor, a fireman or a carpenter. The ones who cultivate and nurture. The ones who listen and help plan a future. A path for every child that help shape the future of our nation.
Thank you to all of you. We hope you enjoy your well deserved break 🌸
