What is OT?
Occupational Therapists support people to participate in the everyday activities that are meaningful and important to them.

For children, this can include: 🧩 Playing and engaging with others ✏️ Developing fine motor and handwriting skills 🧠 Supporting sensory processing and regulation 👕 Building independence with dressing, feeding and self-care 🏫 Participating in learning and school routines 💬 Developing social and emotional skills 💪 Building confidence, strength and coordination

OT is all about understanding what a child wants or needs to do, what may be making it difficult, and how we can support them to participate more successfully.

And sometimes, OT doesn’t look like traditional “therapy” at all — it might look like playing, exploring, moving, creating and having fun. 🌿
Because when children are supported to participate in the things that matter to them, they can learn, grow and thrive. ✨

👋 Meet Georgia, Occupational Therapist

Georgia joined our OT team in July, working across our Maroochydore community.

She is happiest when therapy is moving. Swings, climbing, big body play, outside wherever we can manage it. Kids get a lot done when it does not feel like work, and Georgia is very good at that. 🌟

She has spent the past three years with children in clinics and classrooms, and has completed training in Ayres Sensory Integration. She works with families on:

🌿 Sensory processing and regulation, at home, at kindy, at school
🚽 Toileting
👕 Everyday routines: dressing, mealtimes, getting out the door
🤸 Gross and fine motor skills, balance and posture
✏️ Handwriting and school readiness
🧩 Play, connection and growing independence

Georgia also works alongside teachers, so what happens in a session carries into the classroom.

With Georgia here, we have OT appointments available at both clinics right now. If OT has been sitting on your list for a while, this is a good moment to start.

➡️ Send us a message or call 07 5293 7612 ✨

Clinically excellent. Genuinely caring.

Friday Fun ✨

This time last week celebrating with our whole hearts, all in one room. We are still catching our breath. 💕

Thank you to the Sunshine Coast Business Women’s Network for a night we will not forget, and for a community that lifts women rather than watching them. Thank you to Matt and Jess, who saw something in us and put our name forward. Thank you to the GPs, paediatricians, educators and support coordinators who trust us with the families they care for. 🙌🏼

Thank you to every family who has walked through our doors since our very first appointment on 24 May 2021. You are the reason any of this exists. You are our real reward. 💙

To our team: this is yours. 🌟 You show up with such skill and such heart everyday. Your commitment to serve is having immeasurable impact, and you just make everyday a joy.

A society grows great when people plant trees under whose shade they know they will never sit. We are committed to planting trees and building legacy. Thank you SCBWN the process, the people - what a gift! 💝

To every healthcare worker, working woman and all of us doing the good work - Here’s to planting trees together. 🥂

👋 Your child has more words than you are counting.

A mum asked us recently how many words her two year old should have, and then said, almost as an aside, that she had not realised animal sounds counted. That aside is this whole post.

When we think of 'how many words my child says', we usually only count 'proper' words, but as speechies - here is what we are looking for, and some tips on what already counts 🌸

💙 Animal sounds. Moo, woof, beep. If your child uses the same sound for the same thing on purpose, it is doing a word's job.

💙 Gestures and signs. A point, a wave, a hand held out for more. Every one of these is your child deciding to tell you something, and every one builds towards speech rather than away from it.

💙 Approximations. Bah for bottle. Nana for banana. If the same sound means the same thing every time, count it. It does not have to be clear to anyone but you.

✨ The broad guide we work from is around fifty words by the second birthday, and starting to join two of them together.

If you count tonight and your list feels short, that is information, not a verdict. It tells us where to start looking, and there is a great deal that can be built from wherever your child is right now.

It is Speech Pathology Week, 23 to 29 August, and this year's theme is communication creates possibility. This is what that looks like in our rooms. 🫶

Save this and count while you are reading a book together tonight. Then tell us the most surprising thing on your list. We love receiving your messages!

When the whole team gets a little too excited about a new resource 😂⭐️

A bit of movement, a lot of laughs, and some very questionable hula-hooping skills 😅

We love finding ways to bring fun, connection and play into our clinic ✨💛

It's her birthday! Join us in celebrating GRACE! 🥳

Described as 'leaving a trail of laughter wherever she goes' amongst team, Grace has been part of the Zoe family since March 2024, and if you have sat in a room with her you already know why families ask for her by name and we love to lunch with her. ✨

Grace has a way of making big feelings feel manageable, for children and for the parents beside them, and she does it with calm and wisdom.

She is our craft-maker, Mumma extraordinaire and the best support we could ask for for our families. 🌸

Grace, thank you for the depth you bring to our psychology work and the warmth you bring to our team. We hope today is filled with all the things you love (& we know it is!). Happy birthday from all of us at Zoe. 💙

Every year around enrolment time the question lands, and almost every time the worry underneath it is academic.

🍃 Do they know their letters? Can they write their name?

Those are lovely things. They are not the things that decide how a five year old's first term goes.

What our OT, Psychology and Speech team actually look at:

✨ Self regulation. Can they hold attention, wait, and come back from a disappointment. This is the strongest single predictor of how school goes, and it outranks early academic skill.

✨ Fine motor. Not handwriting for its own sake. A hand that moves freely leaves the brain free to think.

✨ Social and emotional readiness. Turn taking, separating at the gate, asking an adult for help.

✨ Functional independence. The lunchbox, the toilet, the bag. Small things that decide whether a child spends the day learning or the day coping.

✨ And the part we most want you to hear: 'not yet ready' is information, it's not a verdict. Every one of these is a skill, and skills can be built. There are two full terms between now and a February start, and a great deal happens in two terms.

Save this for your kindy meeting, ask the questions, and if you need a hand, we're here to help.

Did one of these surprise you? Tell us below, we read every one. 🫶
