  • Our approach

    Bare Feet OT is a relationship-based practice that focuses on your child's strengths and developmental level, believing in getting back to basics and slowing down to build strong connections. The therapists are passionate about partnering with families to become advocates for their children, with specialist training to identify the underlying causes of everyday challenges. Sessions address both foundational skills and noticeable difficulties, working across a range of areas including developmental milestones, self-care, motor skills, sensory processing, play and social skills, learning skills, and emotional regulation. The philosophy emphasizes that play is a child's main occupation and foundation for learning, recognizing that new skills develop most effectively through play-based approaches.

  • Working with families

    Bare Feet OT is passionate about partnering with families to become advocates for their children, which sits at the heart of their relationship-based approach. Parents and carers are encouraged to complete the new client form to initiate contact, and the practice maintains open communication channels through phone and email to discuss your child's needs and progress. The collaborative philosophy emphasizes working together as a team with families to support your child's independence and development.
