OT has really helped our dyspraxic son with his fine motor skills, body strength, and problem solving. He has started to show more confidence at school and is less anxious about doing the work required of him there. The OT communicates well with the teacher and has integrated into the school timetable so our son doesn’t miss break times and key lessons. It helps that she can go into the school so we don’t have to take him out to attend sessions. We get weekly updates emailed to us about his progress and how he is doing. Overall, we have had a positive experience and appreciate the support of having an in-school OT for our son.

My son started seeing Muzzi and her team just before summer 2017. Although initially reluctant he now enjoys the therapy sessions, which are always are fun and interactive. The therapists are warm, friendly and approachable. I like that the therapists go into school and work with the children in a setting the children are comfortable in. A report is produced and sent by email at the end of every session and this is a great way of keeping informed of the activities in the session and progress made. I would definitely recommend this service.

Over a year ago, my son who has high functioning autism, ADHD and sensory issues began receiving weekly occupational therapy with Lovely Mel, to increase his core strength, balance, planning and organisation, as well as handwriting and use of cutlery. After about 9 months of input, my son’s improvements allowed fir him to finally be able to learn to ride a bike (at age 9), while his handwriting improved, together with his behaviour and confidence. We have received great advice on adapted cutlery and strategies to manage sensory issues. My son really enjoys the sessions with Mel. Thank you so much all of your invaluable support. We really appreciate all you have done for him!

Our son has been having OT sessions for the past year. Muzzi and Hannah are so approachable and respond to any questions we have quickly. We really appreciate our weekly emails detailing what our son does in his sessions. He enjoys his 45 minute OT sessions and has made lots of progress in skills he needs to help him cope with his day to day life as well as his academic life. These sessions have been fundamental in helping him with his independence.

Thank you so much for your mail and for everything you have done for T. She has loved your sessions and would have loved to carry on with them forever!! I will continue working on her pen grip at home.

First of all, I just wanted to say thank you so much for coming and taking the staff session last week – I have had so much positive feedback from all of the staff who have been busy changing the positions of certain children in class, buying jigsaw puzzles for the class, carrying out movement breaks and making other classroom adjustments, inspired by your session. One member of staff commented, ‘I wish Muzzi was working here all the time,’ and everyone appreciated the time you took to provide us with so much information about OT.
