Our Families Love Us
Trusted by hundreds of families across Ottawa since 2016.
I have been so impressed by our experience at On the Ball Pediatrics. From the very first phone call to schedule an appointment, I could tell that my child would be welcomed and feel comfortable here. My child has had occupational therapy with Nicole and Jordan, and physiotherapy with Liane, and it has made a significant, positive difference for my child.
I would HIGHLY recommend Jordan to anyone!! She has helped my son SO much with his gross motor delays. He’s almost exactly where he should be for his age after all of Jordan’s help! The girls at the front desk are also SO kind and very helpful.
On The Ball are amazing! The support they have given us is second to none. The patience Melissa has with my son is incredible. He's made incredible progress. I can't recommend them enough.
Director of Programs, Ausome
In previous years, we have collaborated with On the Ball to provide specific physical literacy programs to many of our Ausome athletes. Projects like that of On The Ball are essential to the growth and development of young children and youth with autism. Our Ausome participants have greatly benefited from our collaborated projects with On The Ball in the past.
Heather went above and beyond to make our child feel comfortable and get him to participate in the important activities that are beneficial for him.
You will not be disappointed bringing your child here for care. They are knowledgeable, compassionate, and are so genuine. They are very good with my 12 year old son that he likes going to see them and does not want to stop treatment. He sees Liane for physiotherapy and Dayna for occupational therapy and they both are super friendly and wonderful. I feel very welcomed when I walk in for our appointment by the ladies at the front. No matter how busy they are I am never ignored and if my day has been rough, they always take the time to listen to my woes.
What a fantastic appointment we had with Jordan! She was extremely knowledgeable, kind, compassionate and thorough. We went our 4 month old son and we felt exceptionally well taken care of!
My daughter has been doing OT at On the Ball for over 2 years and it's incredible the difference its made in so many ways not only in the skills she had learned but also in helping me understand her needs and be a better parent. Our OT has helped immensely with sensory integration, social skills, advocating for her needs at school and helping find additional resources in the community. You can easily tell that everyone working at the clinic truly cares. This place is special!
Kristi Streigler is our Physiotherapist at On the Ball Pediatric. We have got Amazing results for my daughter’s hip and leg movements. She knows what to do, where to start. She is just the best at what she does. She explains everything very nicely and she is very confident and thorough. Front desk staff at On the Ball pediatric are very kind, polite and helpful. I 100% recommend On the Ball physiotherapy centre at Hazeldean location.
I am so very thankful for On The Ball! We met with Liane this week and she immediately knew what we had to do to help our daughter with the issues she is having walking. She noted nuances that may not be obvious to the untrained eye and offered some solutions that we can now focus on. Thanks again, Heather for the info and follow up with Liane! Your team have been amazing! 🤗
Laura was so so kind and so knowledgeable. My 10 year old daughter felt very comfortable at the appointment and Laura explained everything very clearly and answered all of our questions. It was my daughter’s first experience with physiotherapy and she enjoyed learning what was happening with her arm injury and how to help it heal. I would definitely recommend Laura and On the Ball Physiotherapy to anyone.
This clinic is amazing! My son was in pain and they got him in right away for treatment. Very knowledgeable and friendly staff.
Our OT is amazing. So calm and informed. She really engages my 9 year old son when talking to him about self regulation. Super impressed after just 2 appointments.
Amazing team, they have gone above and beyond to support my son and I would highly recommend to anyone looking at OT.
Our 6 year old son uses On the Ball services for OT and PT. He sees Heather, Amber, and Stephania. He loves everyone who works with him. I am so happy with the services, and we're seeing nice progress in our son! Heather is thorough which I really appreciate. She has been working with my son's school, and speech therapist to ensure we receive a fulsome report for my the school. I highly recommend :)
Liane and her physiotherapy team are the best! They explain everything regarding your child's needs, gladly answer all questions and provide excellent service. They truly care about your child's success.
The team at On the Ball is absolutely fantastic! Amelie is spectacular - patient, knowledgeable and extremely welcoming. Five stars do not do her or the practice justice - they are beyond exceptional :D
Director of Children and Family Services, Mothercraft Ottawa
Our collaboration with On the Ball began in 2016. They have been facilitating monthly workshops for our families based on their identified needs. The workshops are always at capacity and have been very well received.
This is our third session with Myriam, and we are so glad that we found her. We've learned more from her in one session than we have learned in several from non-private OT. She has been very knowledgeable and informative, and our son is responding very well to her and her strategies.
Liane was extremely knowledgeable and informative. She listened to my concerns and helped explain each step and recommendation she made for my daughter. She took her time to answer questions and is also great with kids. We had an amazing experience.
Kristi Striegler is fabulous with my two kiddos. She's knowledgeable, personable and clear. The kids are able to follow through on their exercises at home and look forward to working with her in the gym. I am grateful that they will be strong and avoid future injuries!
We've had great experiences there both in-person, and now with the need for everyone to stay home, on-line as well. It's great that we can continue getting these quality services for our daughter from home with our occupational therapist face-to-face online!
Program Director and Owner, Mommy Connections Ottawa
I have worked with Heather and Liane in a professional capacity for nearly five years within our programs. They have joined our classes to educate and support new mothers on various topics from developing infant strength and promoting gross motor development, to movement milestones, to introducing sensory play and more.
I brought my daughter to On The Ball after she sustained a concussion. Jordan was very experienced and helpful in providing different therapies to help her manage her concussion symptoms. I'm grateful to have this wonderful resource in my community!
Amazing physiotherapist, my daughter just loves her. We have been seeing her for a little over a few months now and she is so patient and great with kids, especially with disabilities.
