Hi, my name is Sanjutha!

I completed my Bachelor’s degree at Sri Ramachandra Institute of Higher Education and Research in India and have been working in the field of paediatric Occupational Therapy since qualifying in 2023. Over the past two and a half years, I have gained valuable experience supporting children with additional needs across a range of clinical settings.

I began my career in a hospital-based paediatric outpatient service, where I developed strong clinical skills while supporting children with a wide variety of developmental and physical needs. I later moved to a Child Development Centre, where I worked as part of a multidisciplinary team alongside Speech and Language Therapists and psychologists. This experience strengthened my belief in the importance of a holistic, collaborative approach to supporting children and their families.

I am passionate about improving the quality of life and wellbeing of children with additional needs through personalised, evidence-based interventions. The Words First value that resonates most with me is keeping the student’s best interests at the heart of all decisions. I believe in working from a social model of care rather than a purely medical one, celebrating neurodiversity and recognising each child’s unique strengths and identity. By incorporating Sensory Integration into my practice, I aim to look beyond simply treating a child and instead focus on supporting their overall wellbeing, participation and ability to thrive in their own way.

Outside of work, I enjoy expressing my creativity through music, drawing, macramé, threadwork and creating traditional Indian art. Those who know me best would describe me as calm, kind and creative.
