Jess is an experienced Paediatric Physiotherapist who is passionate about helping children and their families thrive. Since graduating from the University of South Australia in 2015, she has worked with people of all ages and abilities, developing a special interest in early intervention.

Jess has experience working with babies and children with a wide range of developmental, neurological and musculoskeletal needs. She has been involved in a number of specialised paediatric services, including equipment prescription, cerebral palsy surveillance, hydrotherapy, and early intervention clinics.

Jess is warm, approachable, and easy to connect with. She values building strong, trusting relationships and believes therapy should be fun, engaging, and meaningful. Her focus is always to support each child and their family in a way that suits their unique needs, interests, and goals.

Jess has worked closely with Occupational Therapists and Speech Therapists, supporting children’s sensory needs, communication, emotional regulation and independence in self-care tasks.

 

She has completed a range of paediatric courses, including Advancing Skills in Paediatric Physiotherapy: Neonates & Infants (Monash University) and Transition to Home: Adaptation after Pre‐term Birth (ABNDTA).

Having a close family member on the NDIS gives Jess a deeper understanding of the daily challenges families may face, and strengthens her commitment to providing personalised, family-centred support.

 

Jess enjoys staying active and spending time outdoors with her puppy, who keeps her busy with plenty of walks and adventures.
