Care should feel considered, not rushed.

At Alike, we prioritise how people experience healthcare - not just the outcomes, but the process itself. That means listening closely, moving at your pace, explaining what’s happening, and respecting boundaries at every step.

Our approach is centred on dignity, collaboration, and choice, because feeling safe and understood lays the foundation for meaningful care.

Little visitors welcome 💛

Our space is designed with children in mind - calm, playful, and safe - so they can feel at ease from the moment they arrive. We know healthcare settings can feel big and overwhelming, especially for young ones, so we’ve created an environment that supports comfort and curiosity.

If bringing your children along to your appointment makes life easier, you’re more than welcome to do so. They’re part of our community too.

Calling all new grad and early-career OTs 👋

Session 5 is coming up (Friday 29th May)

The Assessment Toolkit:
Core Skills for Early Career OTs

OT Sparks: Foundations for Practice is a 12-month professional development and supervision program for early-career occupational therapists, delivered in collaboration with Alike Health.

Designed for OTs working in community and private practice, the program supports therapists who may feel underprepared for the complexity of real-world caseloads, clinical decision-making, and professional expectations. OT Sparks bridges that gap through structured learning, practical skill development, and supportive peer-based supervision.

The program runs monthly and offers a hybrid format - in person at Alike Health in Newcastle, with an online option available for OTs across Australia. Sessions focus on real clinical challenges, guided reflection, confidence-building, and developing sustainable habits for long-term practice.

This program is ideal for:
✔️ New graduate and early-career OTs (0–5 years)
✔️ Community and private practice clinicians
✔️ OTs working with mixed or complex caseloads
✔️ OTs seeking structured support alongside 1:1 supervision

Flexible ticket options are available, including single sessions, bundles, or the full 12-month program.

🎟️ Tickets are available here: https://events.humanitix.com/ot-sparks-foundations-for-practice (link in bio)

Grip strength is more than just hand strength... it’s a key foundation for everyday independence.

From opening jars and carrying groceries to handwriting and self-care tasks, grip strength plays a vital role in how we function day to day.

Increasing grip strength means supporting confidence, safety, and participation in meaningful activities.

Our OTs can support you with tailored exercises, task‑based practice, and strategies to make daily activities easier and more comfortable.

Strength building for kids doesn’t need a gym 💪

The best way for children to build strength is through play, movement, and exploration.

✨ Here’s what actually helps:
• Climbing, crawling, and obstacle courses
• Core-based play (think balancing, rolling, reaching)
• Animal walks like 🐻 bear walks, 🦀 crab walks, and 🐸 frog jumps

Strong core muscles support better posture, coordination, and overall movement skills.

💡 Strength vs endurance:
Strength = short bursts of effort (jumping, climbing)
Endurance = keeping going for longer (walking, running)

Both matter — but strength is often overlooked in young kids!

🎯 Try this at home:
5-Day Movement Challenge
Day 1: Bear walks
Day 2: Frog jumps
Day 3: Crab walks
Day 4: Obstacle course
Day 5: Balance challenge

Keep it fun, keep it playful — that’s where the real progress happens.
