Motivate Kids

Motivate Kids Motivate Kids provides tailored OT for your child to be supported to unlock their greatest potential. We walk you through this process step-by-step.

At Motivate Kids we know the thing you want most right now is a clear plan of where your child is at, the journey to come and an idea of the destination. You too will learn along the way so that you can more confidently understand your child, their therapy plan and implement it too. You will gain clarity and have that feeling of “I’ve got this.”

You need someone who keeps everyone on the same page so that home and school, or kindy / child care, pull together in a way to create a therapeutic life for your child. Nothing will be missed along the way. So imagine that feeling when you see your child succeed at things they’ve never done before. To see them happy and engaged and to see that their progress overflows out of therapy and into their daily lives. This is all held together by someone who specialises in “sensory integration” Occupational Therapy. Someone who is as passionate about your child as you are. Someone who will challenge them “just enough” to make progress that is worth celebrating. This someone has to be fun, uplifting and bursting with knowledge. It is important for you to feel heard, appreciated and empowered as you undertake this journey and to be surrounded by a community of like-minded people who have your back. These people have not walked in your shoes but they sure have had their own journey. We can learn from each other and realise, we are not alone. Its time to stop surviving and start thriving. Having stability in life to release the pressure is essential. At Motivate Kids we know exactly where you are at right now and how to help you and your child move forward. After all, “it’s about supporting children to live their best lives” – Motivate Kids

Still pinching ourselves that our very own Rochelle Mutton has been named one of South Australia’s 40 under 40 and received the Social Impact award for 2025. 🥹🥳

It’s a huge honour. But for us, it’s also deeply personal.

Because social impact isn’t just something we talk about, it’s what we build Every…Single…Day.

It’s in the trust we earn with each child. It’s in the hope we offer to families who felt overwhelmed. It’s in the way we advocate, innovate, and care, not just clinically but humanly.

This recognition celebrates Rochelle’s leadership but also reflects the heart of our whole team. A group of people working together to help children feel safe seen and supported to thrive.

Here’s to the next chapter! 🥳

At Motivate Kids, play is more than just fun (though there’s plenty of that too!), it’s how we help kids do the real work of growing up.

Because play is never just play. It’s powerful.
And it’s what we do best. Happy International Play Day friends!!

When temperatures rise, little bodies (and grown up bodies) can become extra tired and have extra sensitivities—and that’s completely normal.

On days like today, keeping things calm, cool, and predictable can really help:

Offer cool, water-rich snacks (frozen fruit, watermelon, yogurt pouches)

Keep playtime low-energy - it’s the perfect time to do some easy sensory play or quiet time in the shade.

Be flexible with routines and kind to yourself.

Today’s message is simple, slow down, stay hydrated and do what feels right for your family.

After a big day (and week!) at school, the transition home can feel overwhelming for many kids. Whether it’s the car ride home, unwinding after a busy day, or settling in for the night, a little extra comfort can go a long way. 🤍

Our weighted plush friends, Charlie the Puppy and Eleanor the Elephant, are designed to provide deep pressure input—similar to a firm hug—helping children feel calm, safe, and supported.

Weighted toys can:
• Help with post-school regulation
• Support self-soothing during car rides
• Promote relaxation and restful sleep
• Provide a comforting, familiar presence at home

Eleanor and Charlie also have lots of other friends here at Motivate Kids! Come and meet them in all our studios where you can also purchase one to take home with you!

If you’d like to learn more about sensory strategies for your child, our OTs are always happy to help.
