Who are we?
Expert Paediatric Physiotherapy and Child Development Support in the Hills, led by Hannah Healey
Meet Hannah
Hannah Healey has been honing her skillset in physiotherapy over the last decade and has definitely found her passion in paediatrics. She brings a fun, positive and family focused mentality to her practice and is always looking for creative ways to promote motor development in our little ones.
Hannah is an expert in her field - she is highly regarded by her peers and collaborates with the best team of paediatricians, speech pathologists, occupational therapists, podiatrists & orthotists in the Hills area. She has a highly specialised skillset in infant development and neurological assessment and has a wide breadth of knowledge across all areas of paediatric healthcare.
Hannah strives not just to achieve milestones, but to support and uplift the child to believe in themselves and build their own confidence. Those that have seen Hannah for a while know the mantra she tells her kids, “You are strong. You are brave. You can do hard things”.

Hannah studied a Bachelor of Physiotherapy at the Australian Catholic University. Since graduating, she has completed hundreds of hours of further study and training in the area of pediatrics and is always learning.

Outside the Therapy Room
Hannah is a Hills local and brings her energetic, bubbly nature into everything she does. Outside of work, she enjoys playing netball, rock climbing, and bushwalking with her husband and their dog, Marley.
She is also a strong advocate for disability inclusion in sport, regularly volunteering with the Cerebral Palsy Sports & Recreation Association (CPSARA). See upcoming events here. Alongside this, Hannah is part of a research team at Cerebral Palsy Alliance, exploring the feasibility of using General Movements Assessments as part of a universal screening for cerebral palsy. Read more about the research here.
With many years of experience as a clinical educator, Hannah has supported undergraduate students from Macquarie University, Australian Catholic University, and Western Sydney University. Teaching and training the next generation of paediatric therapists is something she finds deeply rewarding.
She is also completing the highly regarded Australian Physiotherapy Association titling process in paediatrics—a recognition of advanced skill, expertise, and her commitment to ongoing professional development.
