From paediatricians to ear specialists and child psychologists or orthodontists … our children have their own special set of medical needs and these are the people who will help you meet them.
CLAY OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY
Clay Occupational Therapy practice owners Nicky Burge and Jess Roux, along with their team of five therapists, are passionate about early intervention, parent education and a holistic approach to therapy. “We have a special interest in Sensory Integration and use a relationship-based model that places high value on trust and connection between a child and their therapist.” Their OT’s assist children – from babies to primary schoolers – with sensory difficulties, reaching motor milestones and social and emotional development. “We love tapping into a child’s strengths and interests through play and believe that supporting parents and caregivers is key to the success of a child’s therapy journey.”
Clay Occupational Therapy is based at Eden Preparatory School in Salt Rock, but serves various schools in Durban North, Umhlanga and Ballito.

FAMILY DENTAL CARE
Family Dental Care caters to the whole family. “We strongly believe in prevention being better than cure and the best way to achieve this is by making children comfortable and familiar with dentists and dental rooms from a young age. We have a special interest in paediatric dentistry and all of our dentists and staff have been trained to handle the anxiety that children generally experience at dental visits. This, combined with their favourite show playing on the TV screens, gentle and caring hands and a small surprise after each visit, ensures your little ones leave our practices calm and happy to visit again!”
