ASK THE EXPERT
Aisling Nebor, OT
As a Paediatric Occupational Therapist and a Mom of two, I know the importance of Play and Fun. Simply put, when kids are having fun they learn. The tools we use are so important – and for kids the tools we use are TOYS! It is my passion to help children reach their potential, and I am so excited to use my experience as an OT, and as a Mom to hand-pick the best toys for you to continue the learning at home.
