Our team are able to work individually with specific children, helping to identify and treat their needs or alternatively work with groups of children on developing skills together whilst improving independence and confidence.
We have worked closely with many education settings and families alike, to help children improve and develop their motor skills to make day to day activities both in school and in the home easier.
Of particular interest to the team is the development of motor skills in children and the unique relationship these have with a child’s ability to be independent with functional life skills from early childhood through to teens and beyond.
