Great CPD today with Acorra on bed equipment for children and small-stature adults. Amazing to see how the right equipment can really support safety and independence. Feeling ready for my rotation across adult and paediatric services! 💚

I am very proud of my child 🥰
He really enjoys drawing, so he has made us our very own masks.
Princess, Penguin and a Baboon.

Absolutely adore that he enjoys drawing as much as I always did and still do ♥️

Four weeks as a registered Occupational Therapist — it still doesn’t feel real. Grateful for how far I’ve come and excited for the growth ahead. Here’s to learning, purpose, and making a difference 💚 #OccupationalTherapy #Growth

Wow! How stunning is this. Such a great visual for the many OT models learnt in uni.

Absolutely stunning @ohteasuz.bsky.social 😍😍
Painting for my fellow OT’s, hopefully you can spot a few models represented. I wanted to reflect on occupation as the art of living, the lyrics to the music of our biology…this is what I got

I had the best time celebrating finishing and passing my course with my girls.

A meal for two ended up being a surprise lovely evening with some of my faves.

It's official.
Final submission in 🎉

Completing my own research has been a fabulous experience but writing the dissertation was not 🤣

Fingers crossed for a pass 🤞🏼

Then it's waiting for the official Occupational Therapy status and registration 💚🎓💚

Last night I went to a dance class at the gym. An hour of dancing went so quickly as it's something I enjoy.

Getting back to participating in my own meaningful occupations to get me through this dissertation 💚

Look at these stats!!

I recently spoke at a local school about my journey as an occupational therapy apprentice. Only one student had heard of OT, but I hope they all left with a better understanding-and maybe some curiosity to learn more.

Grateful for the chance to share my story and inspire the next generation 💚

I forgot how calming I found drawing.

Since being a mum and starting my apprenticeship, I have realised I have left little time for meaningful occupations.
