Dave Jereb is a visionary paediatric Occupational Therapist with over two decades of unwavering commitment to enhancing the lives of children. As the co-founder of MoveAbout Therapy Services in 2008, Dave and his equally dedicated wife, Kathy, have revolutionised paediatric occupational therapy in Australia. Central to his philosophy is the belief, ‘We support the people who support the kids’. Dave passionately advocates that the best way to assist children is by empowering the adults in their lives – parents, caregivers, allied health professionals, and educators – with the tools and understanding to read, understand, and positively influence their behaviour. This core principle is evident in MoveAbout’s promise to offer unparalleled therapy and support, ensuring that children, regardless of their differences, have the opportunity to lead meaningful lives and become valued and valuable members of their communities. A staunch advocate for continuous learning and development, Dave, in collaboration with Kathy, crafted the MoveAbout Activity Cards and developed transformative workshops including ‘A Dynamic Approach to Regulation and Behaviour’ and ‘Connecting with Kids with ASD’. Dave’s contributions also include co-presenting ‘STEPPSI: A Tool For Effective Clinical Reasoning’ and, recently, the ‘Sensory Defensiveness: A Comprehensive Treatment Approach’ alongside Dr. Julia Wilbarger. Beyond the bounds of MoveAbout, Dave’s has been a guiding star to early career OTs, and the business who employ them, battling burnout and striving to nurture their professional growth. As a mentor and coach, he’s passionate about uplifting the community, fostering connections, and injecting a playful spirit into the process of lifelong learning. His expertise shines through multiple platforms, from podcasts like the ‘Chatabout Children Podcast with Sonia Bestulic’, ‘Private Practice Made Perfect with Cathy Love’, ‘Run Like Clockwork’, and ‘Holly the OT podcast’, to enriching series on the MoveAbout Therapy Services YouTube channel, such as ‘Beach Topics’ and ‘MoveAbout Supervision Sessions’. In every endeavour, Dave brings along his relentless dedication, keen insights, and an unwavering spirit of service. With his vast experience and a heart anchored in making a difference, he is undeniably shaping a brighter future for paediatric OT in Australia.
