Francesca Arlotta
Francesca qualified as an occupational therapist in Adelaide at the University of South Australia. Since wanting to work with children since she was a child herself, she spent several years in Adelaide working across private practice and non-for-profit organisations. She gained experience working with children with Autism Spectrum Disorder, Down’s Syndrome, Attention Deficit Disorders, sensory difficulties, learning difficulties, global developmental delay and a range of cognitive and physical needs across clinics, schools and home environments.
She then decided to pack up her bags and move across the sea to the UK in 2018. Here, she begun working in a SEN school, setting up the OT program from the ground up, across both the primary and secondary site for 150 students before moving to Kiki’s Children Clinic in 2021.
Francesca is a member of the Royal College of Occupational Therapists (RCOT) and registered with the Health Care Professions Council (HCPC). She has just completed studying her Sensory Integration Level 1 training, SOS Approach to Feeding Training and Makaton Level 1 training.
Francesca is very passionate about supporting all children to reach their potential and is very excited to be working with the KCC team!
