At Collaborative Health Murrumbidgee, Tayla provides individualised, evidence-based physiotherapy for children from birth to 16, with a strong focus on movement quality, physical development, and participation in sport and everyday life. She works with children and young adults who want to move better, feel stronger, and participate more confidently — whether that’s keeping up at school, returning to sport, or managing pain and injury as their bodies grow and change.

Tayla is a physiotherapist who has completed APA Paediatric Physiotherapy Level 1 training and has a particular interest in working with active children, adolescents, and performing arts athletes.

Tayla works with children and young people who:

• Are babies or infants needing early physiotherapy support for:
• plagiocephaly (head shape)/head turn preference
• torticollis
• positional talipes equinovarus/club foot
• early asymmetries or delayed early motor milestones
• Want to improve strength, coordination, balance, and movement control
• Are experiencing sports or activity-related injuries, including overuse injuries, lower limb and upper limb injuries
• Participate in gymnastics, dance, aerials, cheer, and other performing arts
• Have hypermobility or joint instability, including Ehlers-Danlos syndromes (EDS)
• Are managing postural or spinal concerns, including scoliosis in children and adolescents
• Experience exercise intolerance, fatigue, or dizziness, including Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS) or suspected POTS
• NDIS-funded physiotherapy, focused on functional goals, independence, and participation
• Need support to return to or build confidence with sport, physical activity, or recreation
• Would benefit from aquatic physiotherapy
• Require adaptive cycling support, including Freedom Wheels bike trials and prescriptions

Clinical experience and approach

Tayla’s approach focuses on understanding how a child or young person moves, rather than just treating a diagnosis. Therapy is goal-directed, practical, and tailored to real-world demands — such as sport, school participation, and community activities.

With APA Level 1 Aquatic Physiotherapy training, Tayla incorporates water-based physiotherapy when beneficial — particularly for individuals managing pain, fatigue, hypermobility, or reduced tolerance to upright exercise.

She has completed postgraduate training in cerebral palsy management through Monash University and maintains experience supporting children with a range of developmental and neurological presentations. 

Tayla has a particular interest in POTS and dysautonomia, supporting adolescents and young adults through carefully graded, evidence-based physiotherapy programs aimed at improving exercise tolerance, physical conditioning, and confidence with movement.

She also provides Freedom Wheels assessments and prescriptions, supporting children and young people who are unable to ride a standard bicycle to access safe, independent cycling and meaningful participation with family and peers.
