• Our approach

  At Little Heroes Occupational Therapy, sessions focus on building skills like motor coordination, sensory processing, and emotional regulation through one-on-one therapy delivered in the environments where children live, learn, and play. The practice believes real progress happens through collaboration, working closely with parents, carers, and educators to help each child achieve meaningful, functional goals. Sessions are flexible and can be delivered at home, school, or online, whatever works best for your child. The therapists create a safe, encouraging space where children feel seen, valued, and inspired to thrive, using fun and engaging activities tailored to individual needs.

• Working with families

  Parents and carers are seen as the real experts and are central to the therapeutic process at Little Heroes. The practice offers dedicated in-home or online coaching sessions to help families build practical strategies that work in everyday life, reducing the need for ongoing therapy. Communication and collaboration with families, educators, and other professionals is fundamental to how the practice operates, with the goal of creating a true team effort where families are in the driver's seat.

• Meet the team

  Little Heroes Occupational Therapy is led by founder Ricardo Rahme, an experienced occupational therapist with a passion for paediatrics and evidence-based practice. The team includes Senior Occupational Therapist Shaun Bostock, who brings warmth and expertise in empowering children through meaningful activities, and occupational therapists Lauren Bertolissio and Steph Graham, both dedicated to helping children build confidence and independence through fun, tailored approaches. Support Officer Taylor Scott provides essential coordination and family support to ensure everything runs smoothly from booking through to care.

• Your first visit

  The first appointment involves either an in-home or online assessment to understand your child's needs in a flexible way. Little Heroes works with you through informal discussion or can provide a detailed report, depending on what suits your family. The team takes time to listen to your concerns and find the best next steps for your child's progress.
