Building strong foundations for brighter futures.
Foundations Therapy & Support is a mobile paediatric occupational therapy team working across Melbourne’s inner suburbs, including Prahran, Toorak, South Yarra, Windsor, Richmond, Abbotsford, Fairfield, Kew, Hawthorn, Elwood, St Kilda and Malvern.
We deliver strengths-based, family-centred therapy that helps children build confidence, independence and the skills that matter most to them.
Our team visits homes, schools and kinders across inner Melbourne…
So therapy happens in the places your child already lives, learns and plays.
Individual sessions and group programs are completed within real-life environments such as home, school, kinder or even at the park.
Throughout the entire therapy process, we are committed to providing evidence-based care and we endeavour to ensure that both the children and their families feel safe, comfortable, heard and advocated for.
We collaborate with:

SCHOOL & KINDERS
One OT team for your whole school: in-class support, group and lunchtime programs, embedded OT days and teacher PD.
Therapy that fits your child’s world
Children learn best in the places they already know. That’s why our sessions happen at home, at school, at kinder or even at the park, wherever your child feels most themselves.
Evidence-based, and a lot of fun
Every session is grounded in evidence and built to feel safe, comfortable and heard. The aim is simple: more skills, more independence, more participation, and plenty of laughing along the way.
Led by people who get kids
Our team of occupational therapists is led by founder Jake Du Chateau. We get to know your child first, then build therapy around what they love. Families, teachers and other health professionals are part of the team too, so everyone is working towards the same goals.
Meet the team behind Foundations
Founded by paediatric OT Jake Du Chateau, Foundations has grown into a team of occupational therapists and allied health assistants who share the same approach: get to know the child first, then build therapy around what they love. Every family is matched with the clinician who suits their child best.
