Elgin County’s only paediatric focused OT service.

Find the right path for your family with our Registered Occupational Therapists in our beautiful natural space located in the heart of Elgin County. We’re just 15 minutes from St. Thomas and 35 minutes from London. We are a neurodiversity affirming service with a nature play philosophy.

Our approach

We are a group of Registered Occupational Therapists who believe that Occupational Therapy (OT) should return to its roots: meaningful occupation; for children, this means play. When children are given the time, space and support to engage in meaningful play, they blossom.

Families may benefit from Occupational Therapy services if their child is struggling with daily activities at home, school or play including self-care (e.g. toileting, dressing), productivity (e.g. printing, school work, chores) and leisure (e.g. social skills, riding a bike). We take a family centred approach, providing strategies and interventions for managing challenges at home and school, as well as to promote growth and development. Through our direct intervention, we provide therapy using outdoor play as our modality.
