Our Story Begins Here

Meet Jo, your local Early Childhood Early Intervention Clinician

I’m a parent, clinician, and educator with a deep passion for Early Childhood Early Intervention. With over a decade of service delivery in Melbourne, Teach. Play. Guide. has been dedicated to supporting children aged 0-9 in achieving their NDIS goals through a holistic, family-centered approach.

I believe in looking at the whole child—their strengths, challenges, and unique potential—while empowering families to continue meaningful therapy interventions in everyday life. My sessions are flexible, play-based, and neurodiversity-affirming, ensuring each child feels understood, supported, and capable of growth in their own way.

As a mobile service, I provide support in the environment where your child learns best—whether at home, school, kindergarten, or childcare—making therapy meaningful and accessible.

Now open for referrals from private clients, NDIS self-managed clients & NDIS plan-managed clients.

The Teach. Play. Guide. Promise

At Teach. Play. Guide. we empower every child and their family with personalised support to develop and achieve meaningful goals.

Experienced Clinician

With 16 years as a special educator, I bring extensive experience in supporting children with sensory and emotional regulation challenges, as well as speech and language delays. Since 2015, I have worked across both ECEI and NDIS therapy programs, leading the development of best-practice training for caregivers and clinicians. My approach is informed by evidence-based strategies, ensuring children and families receive the support they need to thrive.

Family-Centered Approach

Every family is unique, and so is their journey. I work alongside families to understand their values, strengths, and challenges, ensuring interventions are practical, meaningful, and seamlessly integrated into everyday life. My goal is to empower families to create positive, lasting outcomes for their child.

Caregiver Coaching

Parents and caregivers play the most important role in a child’s development. Through personalised coaching, I equip caregivers with the knowledge, skills, and confidence to support their child’s growth in natural environments. My approach is collaborative, strengths-based, and designed to fit into daily routines.
