Tara Thomson
Hi, my name is Tara Thomson, I graduated from the University of Witwatersrand in 2011 with a Bachelor of Science in Occupational Therapy. During my community service year, I completed introductory training in Neuro-developmental Therapy (NDT). Following my community service year in 2012, I began my Sensory Integration Training and completed this in 2014 while working in a private practice specializing in sensory integration. I have worked in paediatrics since 2012, both in the private and the public sector. This involved a variety of paediatric conditions ranging from sensory processing disorder and progressive developmental disorders to mild, moderate and severe learning difficulties, as well as cerebral palsy and other neurodevelopmental conditions. I graduated with a master’s degree in paediatric occupational therapy at the University of the Witwatersrand in 2021. Hands on Therapy was established in 2016 and progressed to become Tiny Hands Therapy Services. I am passionate about working with children of all ages and my goal is to ensure happy families, teachers and children following our interaction with your child
Chante De Klerk
I obtained my Occupational Therapy degree, from the University of Pretoria in 2017. I am currently in the process of completing my sensory integration qualification. I have a total of 8 years experience, 6 in the public sector and 2 in the private sector. I started working at Tiny Hands in 2023 where I worked my way up to senior partner in just 2 short years.
As a peads OT I believe that it is important to engage the child and parent in the treatment in order to see the true therapy magic happen at home. Children learn through play and therefor using playful activities, is the foundation of my therapy. I am young at heart and thrive off of the laughter and smiles from children.
I treat with empathy and sympathy. I am a mother of two premature born boys. Of which one is neurodivergent. I therefor understand the challenges that parents face.
It is not about the quantity but rather...the ability.

Shannon Tromp
Hi my name is Shannon Tromp. I graduated from the University of Pretoria in 2024 with a Bachelor of Occupational Therapy degree. I completed my community service year in 2025 where I worked with children with numerous conditions, including autism spectrum disorder, ADHD, developmental delays, cerebral palsy and many more. I completed a play therapy course in which I learnt about using play as a modality to treat behavioral conditions and trauma in children.
I fell in love with working with children early on in my high school career, and have always loved using play as a means to improve function and independence. I value the relationships made with not only the child, but also the family and teachers involved in the child’s development.

Tebogo Mokwena
Hi I am Tebogo Mokwena.
I graduated from Wits University in 2016 with a Bachelor of Science in Occupational Therapy, obtained my Masters in OT in 2024 (also at Wits) and Advanced Diploma in School Leadership and Management in 2025 (also Wits). I have a total of 9 years experience, 8 in the public sector and 1 in the private sector. I own a Nanny n Me franchise (Alberton & Boksburg) which focuses on providing Child Development classes for Nannies and Babies under 3. I am also growing an Educational Toys business named Toddlers to Teens which is aimed at providing purposeful play for children. I started working at Tiny Hands in October 2024 and loving it!!!!
I've always loved being in spaces that promote advocacy, particularly for disadvantaged children. From working in NGOs for children who are hard of hearing to starting up a therapy department in a township special needs school. I believe that children have a right to just be children, and it's our duty to protect their childhood through love, nurturing, presence and most importantly play! There's something beautiful about the sound of children laughing and playing that feels like the world will be o'right!

During my community service year in rural communities in KwaZulu-Natal, I discovered a love for working with children and their parents and caregivers. As a paediatric OT, I aim to truly understand each child and their family so that I can provide individualised and meaningful intervention. I place a strong emphasis on including and educating primary caregivers in the therapy process to ensure carryover into the home environment.
