Where expertise meets extraordinary play.
One passion. Three areas of experience.
Occupational therapy, early childhood education and imaginative children's entertainment — brought together to support meaningful participation, everyday skills and belonging.
MEET THE FOUNDER →I've always believed everybody matters.
Inclusion isn't simply a professional interest for me — it's been part of my life since childhood. Growing up with an older brother with a chromosomal disability shaped how I understand difference, participation and the importance of feeling valued.
That perspective has stayed with me throughout my work in early childhood education, paediatric occupational therapy and interactive children's programs.
I'm passionate about celebrating early childhood development in all its forms — and helping children build skills, confidence and the ability to participate in ways that work for them.
Fostering inclusion.
Building skills.
Creating belonging.
Because everybody matters.
Three areas of expertise.
One extraordinary Kindy experience.
Registered occupational therapist
Bringing together current Ahpra registration, several years of experience supporting children in paediatric clinical settings, and experience within Queensland Department of Education environments.
Experience supporting children with diverse developmental and participation needs, including autism, ADHD and global developmental delay.
Experienced early childhood educator
Diploma-qualified, with more than a decade working in preschools and long day care, including several years operating my own family day care.
Children's entertainer and presenter
More than 15 years designing and delivering energetic, engaging experiences for children, families and community events — bringing storytelling, performance and genuine fun to every adventure.
Playful experiences.
Purposeful learning.
I created The Kindy OT because I saw an opportunity to bring occupational therapy-informed learning directly into kindergarten classrooms — in a way that feels exciting and accessible to children, and genuinely useful to educators.
Each incursion pairs an imaginative children's adventure with live strategy modelling, educator professional learning and practical resources to help extend the learning into everyday routines.
Rather than asking every child to participate in the same way, I want to celebrate different strengths, support meaningful choices and help create environments where all children have opportunities to belong.
Experienced in classrooms, clinics and creative spaces.
Clinical and school experience
Several years of paediatric clinical experience, together with experience in Queensland Department of Education settings — bringing practical insight into children's participation, classroom environments and educator collaboration.
Early childhood, from the inside
Experience across preschool, long day care and family day care — understanding the daily routines, time pressures and practical realities of early childhood services.
Engagement that captivates
Children's entertainment experience for community and corporate events, including events involving organisations such as Stockland, NRMA and Eat Street Brisbane.
