Car Tetris level: EXPERT. 🧩🚗

I may have gone a little overboard at the Busselton Lions Shed recently… but can you blame me?! 👀

As a community OT, I'm always on the lookout for quality assistive equipment that can make a real difference in someone's daily life - and the Lions Shed absolutely delivered. Shower chairs, toilet aids, supported seating, dressing sticks, and more!

A massive thank you to the wonderful team at Lions Club of Busselton Inc for what you do. You are genuine community legends. 🙌

Can you tell I love my job? 😄

💬 Drop a comment below - have you ever scored a gem from a Lions Shed or op shop? Or are you wondering whether a piece of equipment shown in the photo's might suit your needs and want to try them out? We'd love to hear from you!

'Cleaning is just common sense' - not when fatigue, pain, sensory overload, or cognitive challenges are in the picture.

At ChelleCare, we take household tasks seriously because they're the foundation of daily life. We help people find strategies that may better support managing cleaning, laundry, and home tasks in a way that's actually sustainable for them.

The 'simple' stuff matters. We'd love to help you explore what might work for you.

Great question - and one we get a lot from parents.
When we work with autistic learner drivers, we’re looking at things like:
• Attention and processing speed on the road
• How sensory input (noise, traffic, weather) affects concentration
• Executive function - planning, switching between tasks, decision-making
• Reaction time and spatial awareness
It’s not a pass/fail. It’s about understanding how your teen learns and what support may assist them through the driving process.

Every assessment is individual - because every driver is.

If one more person tells you to 'just get a planner,' we feel you.
Apps and planners CAN help - but executive functioning challenges are complex, and a one-size-fits-all tool rarely cuts it.
At , we dig into what's actually getting in the way for YOUR brain - and build strategies around that.
We work with what’s right for you, not a one-size-fits-all approach.

You may have already met her, but we're shining a well-deserved spotlight on one of our own - Nicola! And fun fact: she's a local who's returned to the Busselton community to do what she does best.

Nicola is an OT with a Bachelor of Science (Honours) in Occupational Therapy and over 9 years of experience in the disability sector.

She works with individuals across the lifespan with a particular focus on paediatrics, supporting people with a range of neurological and neurodevelopmental conditions.
Nicola is also trained in hippotherapy and loves bringing creative, movement-based and person-centred approaches into her work - especially with children and those with more complex needs.
She's passionate about supporting people to engage with their goals in ways that feel empowering and meaningful.

We're lucky to have her! 🐴💜

Monday Myth vs Fact.
Needing support with personal care doesn't mean you've lost your independence.
At ChelleCare, we believe independence is about having choice and control - not doing everything yourself. Our OTs work with you to find the right balance: adapting how tasks are done, introducing helpful tools, or ensuring the support you receive is delivered your way.
Dignity and autonomy, always.

Most parents of autistic teens know the learner driver process can come with extra layers - sensory sensitivities, processing differences, anxiety around new environments.
What a lot of families don’t know is that an Occupational Therapist can be part of that journey.
An OT Driver Assessment can help identify where a young person is at, what supports might help, and whether they’re ready to progress - so you have a clearer picture to work from.

Cooking isn't off the table - pun intended!

At ChelleCare, we work with people to figure out how to cook safely and confidently - whether that's through kitchen modifications, simplified recipes, assistive tools, or building step-by-step routines.

Independence looks different for everyone, and we're here to help you find yours.
