LEANNE BAMFORD - Physiotherapist
Leanne loves supporting people to maximise their mobility and participation in everyday activities. She is excited to be part of the KidsPT team, and to work closely with children and families to achieve their goals.
Leanne completed her Physiotherapy degree at LaTrobe University. She initially worked in various areas of adult Physiotherapy including hospital, rehabilitation, and community health settings. In 2014 she moved into the area of Paediatric Physiotherapy, applying her background in Neurological Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation to support children in a Specialist School setting. She has experience working with a variety of paediatric conditions such as developmental delay, intellectual disability, physical disabilities such as Cerebral Palsy, as well as genetic or chromosomal differences.
Leanne is experienced in equipment prescription and has attended various training workshops in this area. She has completed Level 1 and 2 Paediatric Physiotherapy courses through the Australian Physiotherapy Association, and regularly attends professional development events relevant to Paediatric Physiotherapy.
Outside of work, Leanne enjoys spending time with family and friends, keeping up with her energetic dogs, practicing yoga, walking in the Macedon Ranges and getting away to the beach.
