Grace Tonkin

Occupational Therapist

Hi, I’m Grace.

I am an Occupational Therapist at Can:Do 4Kids.

Growing up, I attended many audiology and speech pathology appointments with my younger brother who has a hearing loss. It is exciting that I can now support children and their families in the way my family were supported many years ago here at Can:Do.

Our school holiday programs and facilities are incredible and make a real difference in the lives of our clients.

I love seeing my clients achieve their goals, big or small. Recently I felt very proud to support a client to have showers without meltdowns through sensory related activities and consultative family sessions.

As I continue increase my knowledge, I am keen to grow my understanding of sensory processing and supporting clients and their families to address sensory preference goals.

When I’m not working, I love being outdoors – especially hiking, running or playing tennis or netball. I spend lots of time in my garden growing veggies, then challenging myself to cook and bake different recipes.
