We are expanding east at Paediatric Physiotherapy Associates! 🗺️ 📍

We now provide physiotherapy home visits in East Durham, including Bowmanville, New Castle, and Port Hope. Our physiotherapists continue to provide home visits throughout the city of Toronto and in parts of Durham, Halton, Peel and York (including Burlington, Oakville, Mississauga, Milton, Brampton, Georgetown, Vaughan, Thornhill, Richmond Hill, Markham, Stouffville, Pickering, Ajax, Whitby, Oshawa, Uxbridge).

Our occupational therapists provide home visits within Toronto.

Home visits can offer an ideal opportunity to see a child functioning in their home environment. We will also provide daycare and school consults where appropriate, and may utilize local parks, pools or skating rinks to help meet the child’s goals.

Meet another member of our team! Nikola began his journey at PPA as an OTA/PTA, and has recently begun working as a resident physiotherapist. He graduated with a Master of Science in Physiotherapy at Robert Gordon University in Aberdeen, Scotland. During his masters, he has completed multiple student placements in leading paediatric hospitals across Scotland. Additionally, he holds a Bachelor of Science in Biomedical Sciences from Toronto Metropolitan University, where he was also a member of the varsity men’s basketball team. Driven by his previous work with the autism community at Jake’s House, Nikola developed a deep passion for paediatric care. He is currently providing home visits, clinic sessions, and hydrotherapy sessions.

Outside of work, he enjoys basketball (currently following the NBA, WNBA & Euroleague), watching movies (everything from a serious drama to a cheesy Christmas movie), spending time outdoors, and all things DIY crafts! 🏀🎥🎨

Tasneem completed her Bachelor and Masters degrees in Physiotherapy, specializing in Neurological Conditions, from India, with her post-graduation in 2018. Her passion for paediatrics began during her internship, and since then, she has built over six years of experience working with children and infants. Tasneem has completed advanced courses in clinical decision-making, comprehensive management of children with neuromuscular disorders, and hands-on rehab in neurological conditions. Her experience spans outpatient clinics, schools for neurodiverse children, and home-based paediatric care.

Having recently moved to Canada, Tasneem is enjoying the opportunity to expand her paediatric practice here. She is inspired by the beauty of the country, which makes her spare time even more enjoyable— hiking and exploring through nature trails or trying out creative sensory activities with her child is her favorite part of the day 🌲☀️

We hope all of our PPA families have a good first day back at school!

Here are a few of our therapists favourite tips and tricks to help with this big transition:

📚If you can, try to lessen the load in the morning school rush. For example, having their bags packed and clothes laid out the night before could help everyone feel more relaxed.

📚Build in a quick movement break to your morning routine if possible. Wall pushes, jumping jacks and deep pressure cuddles are a quick and easy way to incorporate movement and also connect with your child before spending the day apart.

📚Kids are often very hungry after school. Be prepared with a snack for them to have right away. Snacks that are chewy or crunchy, such as granola bars, apples, or carrots, provide good proprioceptive (muscles and joints) feedback which can be calming and regulating to the nervous system.

📚It can be hard for kids to go back to a full day of school after summer break. Schedule in some time to decompress after a long day, such as some quiet time at home if they seem like they need a rest, or a park visit after school if they need to move their bodies.

What other tips and tricks do you use for your little ones going back to school? Let us know in the comments!
