Practice Owner

Nicole is from Cape Town, a proud alumna of Wynberg Girls' High School, who graduated with a BSc in Physiotherapy (hons) from the University of the Witwatersrand in 2013, and jumped straight into a career in paediatric physiotherapy after falling in love with the field during her studies. 

She completed her community service year at Red Cross Children's Hospital, which was an incredible experience. She has also been involved at Red Cross with university student clinical supervision. She spent five plus years working at a special needs school before growing her family by two kids, ages 5 & 7 - during which time she completed a MSc in Medicine in Child Health (Neurodevelopment) at WITS and created her private practice, consulting in- and out-of-hospital, in Cape Town.

Nicole is extremely passionate about her work, with  hyper-focus on quality of care and movement, and indulges her quiet time in reading the latest research in neonatal therapy, cerebral palsy and movement disorders; always on the lookout for a new course to do, or a webinar to jump onto. Nicole is one of six certified neonatal therapists (CNT®) and one of four certified in Neonatal Touch and Massage Therapy (NTMTC) in South Africa. 

Nicole's MSc research is titled "Gross motor function, surgical intervention and academic performance in children with cerebral palsy". She hopes to find the time to publish this research in the next few months. 

Nicole enjoys family time, adventuring with her kids, fine-dining and baking. She loves time at the beach and in the sea. She absolutely loves babies.
