Helping children reach their greatest potential.

At Potential Paediatrics, we're passionate about providing therapy that makes a meaningful difference, not only for children, but for their families too.

We are a growing paediatric occupational therapy practice with a well-resourced sensory integration clinic in Klemzig. Our clinic includes a wide range of therapeutic resources, including foam pits, a ball pit, a fully functional kitchen to develop activities of daily living, a zipline and a variety of sensory swings. The clinic has been thoughtfully designed to provide an engaging and motivating environment where children can develop sensory processing, motor skills, emotional regulation and functional life skills through purposeful, evidence-informed therapy. As our practice continues to grow, we're looking for a Paediatric Occupational Therapist to join our supportive and collaborative team.

This is an opportunity to build on your existing experience while continuing to develop your clinical skills, explore your areas of interest and build a caseload that reflects your strengths. You'll be supported by experienced clinicians in a workplace where your ideas are valued, professional development is encouraged and collaboration is part of everyday practice. Whether you're interested in sensory integration, emotional regulation, motor development, early intervention, school-aged therapy, assessment or working closely with families, you'll have the opportunity to develop your skills and shape your role as our practice continues to grow.
