“From the initial consultation we had with Nikki and Olivia, we knew they would be a fantastic support for our son’s development. They both have a lot of experience and knowledge in their respective areas and were able to answer any questions we had which made us feel at ease straight away.
We opted for an intensive 3 week upper limb therapy course, and went into the 3 weeks thinking William would make slight improvements with his arm use, but he did so much more than that! Olivia made sure the sessions were fun and did amazingly well to entertain William for 2 hours each day given that he was 11 months old at the time!
Olivia soon got to know how to get the best use of William’s arm/hand through play, initially with simple tasks but then increased the level of difficulty. She followed his lead, challenged him with new things to tackle and mixed up bimanual play with CIMT to keep William engaged – with lots of laughs along the way! By the end of the 3 weeks, William is able to open his impacted hand nice and wide to push and pull objects, understanding that his hands need to work as a team, something he wouldn’t do at the start of the course. His strength has also improved and we mastered some gross motor skills during the 3 weeks which was an added bonus!
It was also a huge benefit for us as parents to learn from Olivia and take her tips and tricks to use at home. I would 100% recommend Olivia to anyone who could benefit from her support, we will no doubt be back in the future for more input while William grows. Thanks so much!“

“My daughter recently had a CIMT course with Olivia. Olivia very quickly built a good relationship with both my daughter and the whole family. She was patient, hardworking and able to think outside of the box to keep my daughter engaged in activities. She reassured and educated us as parents on how to complete activities and showed us hoe to best support our daughter to meet her goals. The goals that we had set prior to the therapy were met and new ones were made to work on after the course of treatment had ended. I would fully recommend working with Olivia and I am grateful for all that she does.“
