Working with children to develop specific handwriting skills where they show areas of difficulty such as poor pencil grasp or letter and number reversal.
I have known Judith for a long time, my daughter has special needs, and Judith was her OT a few years ago.
We first met, when she helped my daughter at pre-school, then school and in the family home.
Judith is incredibly professional, yet very personable patient and kind. She worked with my daughter on such things as self care, fine and gross motor skills, and the skills for starting and working in school, both in the classroom, and at play.
Judith engaged on a really lovely level with my daughter, there was always work involved, but it was fun!
As a parent, I felt Judith was ready to listen to my concerns (real or not), and had gentle words of wisdom, which always helped me.
I believe, that Judith is fantastic at her job, she works so well with the kids, and was always ready to listen to the parent, and find ways to make things work for everyone involved.

I have no hesitation in recommending Judith as a Paediatric Occupational Therapist. She was worked with our son for nearly 3 years since he was five. Our son looks forward to his sessions with Judith as he finds them fun. Most of the time he has no idea that she is improving his gross and fine motor skills, and eye tracking to improve his reading and writing! Judith has a lovely gentle manner and responds to his interests to engage in his learning and keep him motivated.
Judith has been proactive with working with our son’s teachers and optometrist to create support that is holistic.
As parents we have been impressed by Judith’s experience and professional manner. She has helped us to learn how to help and support our son in his learning. We feel we have been learning along with our son and really appreciate the care and attention given to our family.
