• Our approach

  Klint Kids uses an adaptive, evidence-based approach that weaves therapy into everyday family life. Sessions focus on therapeutic play tailored to each child's needs—for example, using calm games for children with stiffness or high-energy activities for those with low tone. Therapists teach you practical handling and positioning strategies that fit naturally into dressing, eating, playing and sleeping routines, so you can reinforce learning throughout the day rather than just in clinic. The team applies principles of motor learning and neuroplasticity, using specialist techniques like Bobath therapy and conductive education, and adjusts the challenge level as your child grows. Progress is measured through validated outcome measures as well as observations, photos and videos, keeping you informed every step of the way.

• Working with families

  Family involvement is central to Klint Kids' approach—they teach parents and carers practical strategies for handling, positioning, playing and supporting their child throughout the day, not just during sessions. The team checks in regularly to make sure everyone is on the same page, listens to each family's story, and supports you in understanding your child's diagnosis and what has worked in the past. As children grow into teenagers, the therapists shift focus to empower young people to take charge of their own goals and choose activities that matter most to them. You'll receive transparent updates on your child's progress through outcome measures, observations, photos and videos.

• Meet the team

  Klint Kids has a large and expanding team of highly skilled paediatric physiotherapists with specific training and interests in different areas of child development. The team includes therapists with expertise in areas like gait, orthotics and equipment, as well as adolescent care. Team members have training in specialist approaches including Bobath therapy, conductive education, and gait training, with deep knowledge of developmental neurology. Several therapists may become involved in your child's care as their needs evolve, and the service also partners with orthotists for complex movement and alignment concerns.

• Your first visit

  At your first appointment, the team listens carefully to your family's unique journey and takes time to understand your child's diagnosis, what has and hasn't worked before, and what matters most to you. They'll assess your child's movement abilities across all motor activities and work with you to develop a tailored treatment plan. The therapists act as advocates, ensuring you're supported in understanding your child's needs and that everyone is on the same page moving forward. They're realistic about how treatment fits into your everyday family life, prioritizing fun and family wellbeing alongside therapeutic goals.
