About us

I have worked as a Pediatric Physical Therapist in Central Oregon since 2016 and enjoy raising my family in this wonderful community. In addition to physical therapy with a focus on Tummy Time Method and TMR-TOTS, I offer Craniosacral Therapy as a part of my whole body approach for infant care. I am committed to helping my clients and families achieve their goals and reach their fullest potential. In addition to being the Clinic Owner of PhysioKids I am also an Assistant in the pediatrics department for the Doctor of Physical Therapy Program at Oregon State University.

I have 10 years of experience in medical office administration, with 4 of those years in the pediatric therapy field. As a mom myself, I’m truly passionate about helping the children of our community to excel and achieve their full potential. Having personally benefited from pediatric physical therapy and lactation services, I feel honored to work alongside such talented physical therapists that make such a difference in our community. Born and raised in Central Oregon, I have truly enjoyed spending my life in this beautiful area. In my free time, I love spending time with my husband and two young sons, seeing live music and enjoying the outdoors.

Hi I’m Nicole. I have been a pediatric physical therapist since I graduated from Eastern Washington University, in 2012. Prior to moving to Bend in 2016, I worked at an Early Intervention Clinic, in Washington, treating a wide variety of developmental delays in children ages birth to three years old. After having three children of my own, and struggling with nursing and tongue-ties, I became very passionate about helping mothers and baby’s navigate breastfeeding challenges. In addition to physical therapy, I offer Craniosacral Therapy as a part of my treatments for infants. I have also been trained in assessing high-risk infants (prematurity, birth trauma etc.), NDT (neuro-developmental treatment) Therapy and the Tummy Time Method. I believe in treating babies with a holistic eye and identifying and treating the root causes of nursing challenges and developmental delays. My goal is to build strong relationships with families and to provide them with the highest quality of individualized, evidence based care.
