Your Safe Place Psychology & OT

06/03/2026

🌿 Byford and surrounds!!

We’re looking for a part-time admin assistant to join our small allied health practice.

Your Safe Place Psychology & OT is a small private practice located in Byford, providing psychology and mental health occupational therapy services to children, adolescents and adults.

We’re looking for a friendly, organised and reliable admin assistant to support the day-to-day running of the practice.
This is a part-time role (approx. 9 hours per week), ideally around 3 hours per day across 3 days, with flexible hours.

This role would suit someone who enjoys keeping things organised, communicating with clients and helping a small team run smoothly behind the scenes. It may also be a great fit for someone returning to the workforce who is looking for a flexible role within a supportive small team.

The role includes:
• Managing the practice email inbox
• Maintaining client lists and spreadsheets
• Liaising with clients regarding bookings and enquiries
• Preparing NDIS service agreements and invoices
• Tracking client plans and administrative requirements
• General practice administration

Experience with NDIS or allied health administration would be highly regarded but is not essential for the right person.

We are a small, supportive team who value kindness, professionalism and flexibility. We’re looking for someone who enjoys working independently and takes pride in keeping things organised and running smoothly.

If this sounds like you (or someone you know), we’d love to hear from you.
Please send a resume and short introduction to:
📧 hello@yoursafeplacepsychology.com.au

When emailing, please include “Admin Role Application” in the subject line.

👉 Please feel free to tag someone who might be perfect for this role.

Good luck to all the kiddos returning to school today or tomorrow!

As is typical in WA, the weather is ridiculously hot for the first week of school 🥵 Some kiddos will be feeling anxious as they start at new schools, in new years, new teacher. Some will be excited to see their friends again. What is common for all kids is that they will be tired after school!!

Why does this matter? Because as parents we want to know how their day went, did they have fun, were some parts difficult, what teachers do they have .... but without fail, what kids need straight after school is food, water and some time to decompress and process their day. This may look like quiet time alone, a swim in the pool 🏊‍♂️or a preferred activity.

So parents/caregivers ..... ❌ don't throw a million questions at your kiddos when they get in the car to come home or walk through the door. Instead, ✔️offer food and a cold drink, give them space and time and let them come talk to you when they are ready. You'll have a better conversation and most likely find out more about their day by waiting 😃

Holiday ▶ School ...
You don’t need to “fix” this transition.

Small, supportive things can make a big difference:

• keeping expectations realistic
• talking through the week ahead
• prioritising rest and connection
• allowing feelings without rushing them away

Settling back into school is a process — not a switch.
And your steady presence matters more than getting it perfect 💙

In the lead-up to school, you might notice:

🫤 more emotional reactions
🫤 tiredness or restlessness
🫤 clinginess or withdrawal
🫤 big feelings over small things

These are not signs of regression or misbehaviour.
They’re signs your child is working hard to adjust.

Gentle structure, reassurance and predictability help more than pressure ever will 💙
