Supporting families, empowering your child’s growth

Since 2018, SPOT Paediatrics has helped families achieve real progress, supporting each child’s journey to greater confidence, new skills, and joyful milestones.

A passion for helping children thrive

SPOT Paediatrics began in 2018 in a small two-room clinic, with a shared vision: to create a welcoming space where children could feel safe and thrive, and families could feel understood.

Experiencing parenthood since opening the clinic in 2018 has provided a deep appreciation for the joys and challenges that come with early childhood, and as a team we want to build a place that truly supports families in this journey in the early years into the teen years.

Today, it fills us with pride to see kids eagerly looking for their therapist and leaving with big smiles. This joy, and our team’s dedication, is at the heart of what we do.

Supporting kids and families of all abilities

We provide in-clinic support to toddlers, preschoolers, and school-age children with a range of developmental and learning needs, including autism, ADHD, intellectual disabilities, genetic conditions, developmental delays, speech sound challenges, Developmental Language Disorder, and Childhood Apraxia of Speech.

Our team of passionate paediatric speech pathologists and occupational therapists tailor therapy to each child, focusing on strengths to make progress feel achievable and joyful.

Child-focused, family-centred therapy

We believe that caregivers are their child’s first teachers and play a vital role in advocating for them. We work closely with families to understand each child’s unique strengths and challenges, meeting them where they are.

Our goal is to support progress that feels meaningful and relevant for both your child and family, whether at home, school, or in the community.

Committed to growing with our community

Our team is dedicated to making each session engaging, relevant, and fun. Nothing brings us more joy than seeing the smiles on children’s faces when they achieve a new skill or eagerly select activities with their therapist; or when we hear about or see a child advocating for themselves.

To keep our care meaningful, we welcome feedback and opportunities to reflect on our practices, communication, and processes, so our services stay aligned with what our clients need. We are also committed to building neuro-affirming practices, knowing that many of our traditional approaches need to be questioned, adapted, and changed to better support our neurodivergent clients.

 

Seeing progress, one smile at a time

Every day, we’re reminded of why we do what we do. Watching children grow in confidence, seeing them smile after mastering a new skill, and hearing them ask excitedly for their next session are the moments that bring us the most happiness. We’re honoured to be part of these journeys and to support each child in reaching their potential.
