With a strong focus on neurodevelopment and sensory-based therapy, their team of Occupational Therapists and Allied Health Assistants deliver play-based, strength-focused sessions that not only support skill development but also build self-esteem and confidence.
Led by a passionate team including Occupational Therapists Kym, Aidan, Amy, Vania, Emma, Grace and Neil, and supported by Allied Health Assistants Shae, Georgia, Sophie and Dominic, the clinic is further backed by Practice Manager Tanya Bird and Client Experience Concierge Julie-Ann. Together, they ensure every family’s journey is smooth, supportive and empowering.
Working closely with families, educators, and other professionals to ensure consistent support across every part of a child’s life, children’s Occupational Therapists are unique in health professions as they are trained in both physical and mental health, helping children be successful by using play in their therapy sessions and assessments. This means that they help your child reach their full potential while keeping them motivated to join in.
Naturally Kids also brings their expert services to Hinchinbrook Shire, with a therapist regularly travelling to Ingham to provide accessible, personalised care for local families. “Naturally Kids believes all children deserve to be understood, supported, and celebrated, regardless of where they live — that’s why we’re proud to extend our services to Ingham and surrounding areas,” said Tanya.
Alongside traditional therapy, they offer nature-based occupational therapy and Sense Rugby, which is tailored for children who may not thrive in standard sporting environments.
“Families in the Hinchinbrook region should choose Naturally Kids because we bring high-quality, compassionate therapy directly to your doorstep,” Tanya added.
