She has been working as a paediatric physiotherapist for 28 years. Caroline continues to work part time as a Highly Specialist Paediatric Physiotherapist at St Mary’s Hospital in London.

Bobath is a method of Neuro-Developmental Treatment (NDT), which is a recognised method of treating neuro-developemental conditions including Cerebral Palsy and Acquired Brain Injuries. She is highly experienced in treating children with Cerebral Palsy and a wide range of other developmental, neuro-muscular, musculo-skeletal and congenital disorders, including children who have multiple and complex needs.
Caroline is experienced in gait analysis (walking patterns); orthotics and biomechanics, both for children with neuro-developmental conditions; sports-related conditions and musculo-skeletal conditions. She also has experience in the provision and use of lycra suits as an adjunct to therapy.
Caroline developed the ‘Movement MOT for Children’, a comprehensive clinical assessment tool for children with neuro-developmental conditions. It was accepted for a poster presentation at the Association of Paediatric Physiotherapists annual conference in 2002.
