 About Me
My name is Julia and I am a Paediatric Occupational Therapist. I am the head of the
Occupational Therapy department in a mainstream P-12 school. I am also the director of
Tiny Tackers Therapy, a paediatric therapy service. I work in both services with my Kelpie
Cross, Luna, who is a certified therapy dog.

I have experience working with children from a wide range of culturally diverse background,
including indigenous Australians, new Australians and individuals with a refugee background,
who may or may not have a diagnosed disability, developmental delay, or are at risk of a
developmental delay. I work collaboratively with speech and language pathologists, clinical
psychologists and pediatricians.

You can buy with confidence from Tiny Tackers Therapy, knowing that all of our resources
are created by a Pediatric Occupational Therapist with the appropriate knowledge, skills and
expertise to ensure resources are developmentally appropriate for students and based on
research evidence.
