During her birth, our daughter, Georgia, suffered a major brain injury and was diagnosed with cerebral palsy. We started physiotherapy immediately but realized that she would also need intensive early intervention from an Occupational Therapist. We explored a number of clinics across Singapore, and were immediately impressed with OzWorks. Being from Australia, we liked the fact that many of the therapists were Australian-trained, but more importantly we thought the atmosphere of the clinic was excellent. The therapists instantly knew the challenges Georgia was facing. Two years on and Georgia has made huge progress. Jaclyn has worked so hard to get Georgia to where she is today-we used to have a baby who would constantly scream in any new environment, to a new sound, feeling, exercise and experience. Georgia now is really excited to come to OzWorks, and quickly accepts any new challenging exercise Jaclyn throws her into. She, and we, love the colourful equipment and the friendliness, care and attention from all the staff. OzWorks has become a very important part of Georgia’s therapy team. We would definitely recommend the clinic to any family with a child who needs special attention, or early intervention for a physical or mental issue. Thank you OzWorks!

The therapists are approachable, understanding and thorough. What I like most is that the therapist takes time to talk/brief me on my child’s progress as well as help me with any concerns I have with him. Understanding that my child will likely be stressed when he starts his new school, they took that into account and suggested an extra session per week. I am really appreciative of that because it totally slipped my mind. I am touched that they consider all aspects of him and wanted to help him as much as they can to make it less stressful for him.

I feel that they are able to relate to my daughter. They offer me feedback after each session and we try to incorporate what was learnt at home. They also help me to understand why my daughter does certain things...She looks forward to seeing both Auntie Jaclyn and Adeline weekly!

Vicki is very engaging. She keeps you talking and ‘playing’ so that therapy is fun. This is especially important when the therapy is challenging. I really appreciate the very positive atmosphere at Ozworks.

Very caring therapist, with effective treatment methods for my hand. Would definitely recommend to my friends.
Therapist established a very good rapport with my child. We’re very happy to see improvements. Most importantly, my child looks forward to the sessions. Thank you.

As parents of a child with ASD, we were searching for an OT who can understand our plight and our son’s condition. We were blessed that out son’s developmental pediatrician recommended OzWorks to us. When we started on his OT in February 2009, our son couldn’t speak more than 2 words. But after a couple of sessions with the OT, he was able to develop the confidence in talking to other people apart from this family. Now, with Adeline, we believe that he’s improved a lot in terms of his social interaction skills, attention span and regulating himself.
