Paediatric Physiotherapy on the North Shore and in Ryde

Sydney Child Physio brings paediatric physiotherapy to families on the North Shore and around Ryde. We visit your home, your child's childcare centre or their school, at a time that fits around naps, school and work.

All of our physiotherapists are part of our own team. This is not an agency or a matching service. New families can usually be seen within a week.

Call 0491 042 992 or contact us to book.

Suburbs we visit

Chatswood, Willoughby, Artarmon, Lane Cove, North Sydney, Gordon, St Ives, Ryde, West Ryde, Gladesville, Macquarie Park, Eastwood and surrounding suburbs. If your suburb is not listed, please ask.

What we help with

  • Babies: head shape and neck tightness, rolling to one side only, late sitting or crawling

  • Toddlers: late walking, unusual walking patterns, low muscle tone

  • School-aged children: coordination and ball skills, keeping up in sport and swimming, posture, hypermobility and sports injuries

  • Children with disability or developmental delay: therapy toward NDIS goals at home and at school

How a first visit works

  1. You call or message us. We ask about your child's age and your main concern.

  2. We book you with one of our own physiotherapists who covers your area, usually within a week.

  3. The first visit is an assessment at home. It includes time to talk through what you have noticed.

  4. You get a written summary with the activities to practise.

  5. We agree a plan for follow-up visits and goals.

See Preparing for your initial consultation.

Funding and fees

No referral is needed. We see private clients and self-managed and plan-managed NDIS participants. See our NDIS physiotherapy page. Private health funds may pay a rebate, depending on your cover.

We include a small fee in our pricing to allow for the convenience of seeing an expert in your own home. See our fees page for details.
