Occupational Therapist
Keri is a recently qualified Occupational Therapist, graduating from Flinders University with a Master of Occupational Therapy, a Bachelor of Health Sciences, and a Graduate Certificate in Disability Studies. Her passion for working in paediatrics began during her university placements and her experience as a mentor/therapy assistant for individuals living with a disability. She strongly believes in the power of early intervention, living by the philosophy: "Medicine adds days to life, while occupational therapy adds life to days." Keri brings a fresh and fun-loving approach to therapy, creating meaningful and engaging sessions for children and their families to work towards their goals.
A Little About Keri...What are my favourite hobbies?
Outside of work, I love being a mum to my toy poodles, Murphy and Frankie. Their wagging tails brighten my day, and our walks to the park and café keep us happy, fit, and energised.

What's something I've learnt from working with kids?
Children don't automatically think the worst when presented with a new situation. Children are care-free, and they tend to have a positive attitude/outlook towards any situation. Daily, I am reminded to think positive and be excited about what you can offer to the world.
What's my favourite game?
Musical statues as I love music and dancing, and it incorporates both aspects while having fun and moving your body.
