1. Welcome to
the May Edition
of Paeds Biz
How to improve your
Paediatric Private Practice

2. An Introduction to Cathy Love
Occupational Therapist, Coach, Author and Speaker
For first time readers a quick intro, I am Cathy Love and I am the founding director of Nacre Consulting and
I work with parents and disability service providers to achieve brilliant outcomes for children with special
needs. I provide a range of services:
- Private practice coaching to business owners
- Family Service Coaching for parents to help them manage their child’s team and services
- Clinical supervision to individuals and allied health professional teams
- Service delivery consultation to disability service providers
More to be read about all that over on my website www.nacre.com.au
Each month I write up news, useful information and pearls of wisdom for those working with children and
families in the disability sector. Given that it is a rapidly changing landscape and one that is increasingly
privatised there is typically lots of news to be shared.
“Paeds Biz” is a dedicated online easy to read FREE magazine for Australian allied health
professionals working with children and families.
