Meet Shelly
Hello and Welcome!
I’m Shelly,
A passionate neonatal physiotherapist and advocate for babies and their families. With over 20 years of experience in paediatric and neonatal care, my mission is to nurture little ones with the best evidence-based practices, expert clinical reasoning and innovative interventions—helping them grow stronger, one step at a time.
As the former head of acute paediatrics at KK Women’s and Children’s Hospital, I’ve dedicated my career to caring for high-risk infants in the neonatal intensive care (NICU), empowering parents through education, and cultivating programs that foster early neurodevelopment and bonding. Whether guiding families in the NICU, supporting development in follow-up clinics, or training fellow therapists, my heart is rooted in helping our little ones blossom.
Beyond clinical practice, I’m a lifelong learner, contributing to research, education, and advocacy in neonatal care. At Sprouts Physiotherapy, we believe every child—like a tender sprout—thrives with the right support.
I’m so glad you’re here! Let’s nurture your child’s potential together and celebrate every step toward brighter, healthier beginnings.
With warmth,
Shelly- Anne Sherwood BSc (Hons) PT, CNT
Founder, Sprouts Physiotherapy
