Kids at the clinic have been LOVING LEGO of late. With soooo many requests to build LEGO in sessions. So calming 🙌🏻

Lego isn’t just play — it’s therapy in action! Through building, kids practice problem-solving, focus, patience, and social skills — all in a fun, hands-on way. Every brick helps them grow, regulate emotions, and build confidence - one piece at a time.

Creativity isn’t about perfection-it’s about finding calm and peace. A few mindful minutes getting creative can be so therapeutic, it can settle the mind and soften the day 💜

Best wishes to our incredible NDIS Children’s Therapist Jess as she leave us for a little while for maternity leave. Jess will be so so missed. Where do I even start in thanking Jess. She has worked so incredibly hard over the last 2years providing 12 sessions a week to her caseload of NDIS clients over 2 shires. Attending primary and secondary schools, kinders and early learning centres working with a range of complex clients with multiple diagnoses and needs. Some days traveling close to 100km to get those sessions in. Jess your co-regulating care, compassion, kindness and neverending support has helped so many kids and families. I appreciate all you have done for the biz and the kids and families. Can’t wait to meet the new bub. Enjoy your much deserved rest and time with your 2 babies. We are already counting down the months until your return 🤣🤣
