Maddie Connor

Paediatric Occupational Therapist

Hi, I’m Maddie — the Occupational Therapist behind Wonderfully OT.

I hold a Bachelor of Occupational Therapy with First Class Honours (2018) and I have since worked across a variety of settings. I have found my professional home in community-based paediatrics, where I’m passionate about supporting children and their families in their everyday lives. I also have experience working with individuals with neurological conditions and complex disabilities.

My services are informed by ongoing professional development and a commitment to evidence-based, compassionate care. I have expertise in supporting children with Autism (including non-speaking and Level 3 presentations), children with a PDA (Pathological Demand Avoidance) profile, individuals with ARFID (Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder) and people with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS).

These areas call for a thoughtful, individualised approach—something I strive to bring to every session. My work is grounded in up-to-date knowledge and a flexible, respectful style that honours each child’s unique strengths and needs.

Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of sharing in countless meaningful moments—whether it’s the joy of a child connecting through play, the pride of trying a new food, gaining confidence in daily routines, managing big transitions like finishing high school, or discovering ways to thrive through their own strengths. Every milestone matters. Every step forward is worth celebrating.

Outside of work, you’ll often find me chasing my little ones around a playground, crocheting something bright and cheerful, or experimenting with new recipes in the kitchen.
