About Kindred Paediatric Therapy
Kindred Paediatric Therapy was founded by me, Ellie Cassels, a paediatric occupational therapist and mum who has worked with children, families, and educators across Melbourne as an occupational therapist, behaviour therapist, and educator.
I support children and their caregivers to engage in daily occupations such as kinder and school based activities, family routines, mealtimes, play, and self care activities. I hold a bachelor’s degree with first class honours in occupational therapy and an advanced diploma in Rudolf Steiner Education. Further qualifications and memberships include in occupational performance coaching, learn to play, and the co-op approach as well as with AHPRA and Occupational Therapy Australia. I endeavour to practice in a way that is neuroaffirming, trauma informed, and culturally safe and am committed to providing therapy that deeply reflects the unique needs of each child and family I work with.
Kindred Paediatric Therapy provides services within our local Port Phillip Bay area including within Elwood, St Kilda, Port Melbourne, Middle Park, South Melbourne, Albert Park, Brighton, and Elsternwick.
