There is lots of news to report from the clinic including holiday shutdown dates, staff updates and service availability.

Clinic shutdown dates

Both the Subiaco and Joondalup clinics will shut down for the Christmas and New Year period from Tuesday, December 24, (open for phone calls only) through to Friday, January 3, inclusive.  The clinics will re-open on Monday, January 6, 2025. For all other December and January dates, the clinic will be open and operating as normal.

If you have an appointment that needs to be rescheduled because you will be away, please phone us before the clinic shutdown on 08 6319 1133 or email clinikids.reception@thekids.org.au

The usual cancellation notice requirements will be applied if families do not attend their scheduled appointments. A minimum of 48 hours’ notice is required to avoid fees.

Staff updates

There is lots of movement in the clinic – both incoming and outgoing. We recently farewelled our much-loved Client Support Officer (CSO), Nicki Williams, and Operations Manager Pip Comiskey and wish them well on their next adventures.  We also said so long for now and good luck to Sally Grauaug and Aria May as they head off on parental leave.

We welcome back Amy Eaton (CSO) from parental leave and recently welcomed OT Lucy Kelsch and Speech Pathologists Priscilla Cornelius and Lara Goldie (starting January 6) to the clinical team. Find out more about the new clinicians here.

Service availability

Due to our expanding clinical team, we now have availability in speech therapy, occupational therapy and PACT services at both our Subiaco and Joondalup clinics.

To find out more about our service availability, please call 08 6319 1133 or email clinikids.reception@thekids.org.au
