About Us

At Moment by Moment, we understand the importance of balance. While we're serious about making a positive impact, we know how to infuse joy and lightness into each session so development can feel fun.

We operate with the understanding that transformative therapy can happen anywhere – be it in the cosiness of home, the vibrant outdoors, a school atmosphere, or through accessible online sessions.

How we work

Our 5-step process is designed to create a supportive and collaborative environment, setting the stage for meaningful progress and lasting therapy success.

  • We’ll begin with a thorough evaluation of where your child is at. This will include time for some in-depth discussion (with you and with your child) so we can build a deep understanding of their world and their unique personality.

  • We’ll develop a personalised therapy plan designed to empower your child, collaborating closely with you as an integral contributor in the planning process.

  • Our therapy sessions are designed to be enjoyable and impactful, incorporating activities that are meaningful to children and adolescents.

    We focus on building essential skills that foster independence, integrating therapy seamlessly into everyday life. Throughout the process, we provide continuous support and guidance, ensuring progress and celebrating achievements, big and small.

  • We believe in transparency and open communication. We’ll prioritise checking in with you to discuss your child's development and adjust the therapy plan as needed.

    Your feedback and insights are vital, helping us refine our approach and ensuring that the therapy journey remains collaborative and effective.

  • We love working with families who are ready to lean into the many layers of developmental learning – what you do outside of therapy can make a huge difference in getting great results. We equip families with the tools, resources and support to help them continue to foster their child's independence beyond the therapy session.

  • "Working with Sam was an absolute pleasure. Her level of expertise, experience and care provided some of the high levels of support for our daughter Roxie. Thanks to her work we felt our daughter made substantial gains and equipped us with a range of techniques and strategies to grow and flourish."

  • "Z and Amelia have great rapport. She is very tuned into him, she has a lot of energy, makes helpful suggestions and keeps Z engaged! He has a great time with her. We are very happy."

  • “Cas has a lovely bubbly way about her which I know my son would absolutely love. Cas and F have connected seamlessly, evidenced by the high engagement with F as reported in her sessions updates. Great communication skills, and she leans into our wider support team.”

  • "We 100% recommend Sam and her services. She is so well prepared and always up to date with new therapies and new ways of approaching our son’s requirements. We are super grateful and happy to have her as a part of our son’s journey.”

  • “Amelia is great! She has established  a really good relationship with A and I'm very content with the way the sessions are going. She is considerate, respectful and very devoted to her work.  I'm very happy with her services. She is very creative and I like that sometimes her sessions include some outside work too.”

  • "Seeing the bond our son has formed with Sam and the changes it has made in his life can only be described as incredible. Our son’s growth journey with Sam has been well guided by her creative ways and professional attitude to her work."

  • "Of all the therapists we have engaged through our son’s journey, Sam has been our constant presence, genuinely supportive to us as a family and an incredibly important and influential part of his progress. We are grateful to have Sam in our lives and owe so much to her hard work and dedication."
