"Nicola has been very supportive and creative in her therapy approach, making exercises fun and rewarding:  whether it be reaching out to switch a toy, or sitting supported bouncing on Mummy’s pilates ball, or standing making steps in the harness, with music on for motivation.  On one occasion she even brought some sticky slime to play with to help his hands!  Matthew is unable to sit independently, but Nicola encouraged him to sit in balance on the side of the bed.  Eventually after some time, he could sit by himself for around a minute, this was quite an achievement.   She will encourage staff to take on passive exercise work and encourage them to get involved in therapy sessions.
Nicola worked with us, listening to what our goals were for our son, and challenging him and us to reach forward to achieve new ones.  We always looked forward to her weekly visits and when we eventually managed to create a hydro pool, she took her sessions into the water with, this was a whole new experience.  I would recommend her highly.  She is kind and knowledgeable and has a great approach both to the client and the parents!  It is a team approach.  On a practical level, she has also supported us with equipment reviews and splinting, liaising with orthotics."
