About Kid Spot
We’re not your typical therapy clinic—and we’re proud of that.
At Kid Spot, we believe communication and regulation don’t just happen in a chair—they happen in spaces that feel safe, sensory-friendly, and full of possibility and backed by evidence based assessments and interventions.
Who We Are
We're Dr. Sarah Kennedy (OT, sensory systems expert, toddler mum) and Lisa Shine (SLT, HarvardX addict, mum of 3). Together, we’ve clocked over 30 years of experience in child development, sensory processing, communication, and neurodiversity support.
We’re also both low key obsessed with:
🌈 Designing therapy environments that actually work
🔧 Adapting real-life spaces for co-regulation and connection
🧠 Research-backed practices that are never one-size-fits-all
💡 Turning everyday moments into opportunities for communication
Our Model: TheraSpaces
Whether your child thrives best at home, in the clinic, or at school—we’ve got you covered:
🏠 HomeWorks: Coaching and intervention in your own home, designed around your child’s daily life.
🏥 ClinicWorks: Sessions in our state-of-the-art sensory gym—a custom-designed OT/SLT haven with Lycra swings, lighting, and serious play power.
🏫 SchoolWorks: Therapy and coaching delivered in your child’s classroom, in real time, where they learn and grow.
✨ Who Are Our Kid Spot Kiddos?
Any child that is:
Navigating speech sound difficulties, motor speech disorders,
Delay in the Language - understanding, speaking in sentences or formal diagnosis e.g., DLD
Struggling with Reading, Writing, Memory and Executive Functioning
Autistic, ADHDers, sensory seekers, or sensory-sensitive kiddos
Facing challenges with planning, regulation, or social connection
In short - Beautifully, Wonderfully Neurodiverse and Neurotypical kids
