About Pauline Michaud

Hello! I am Pauline

Occupational therapist at Gland

What do I like about my work ?

What I like about working as a paediatric occupational therapist is the playful aspect of the therapies, which allows the child to learn by having fun.

I like to look for creative solutions with parents and teachers (+ other professionals) to help children become independent.

Interacting with children and seeing them progress and gain confidence makes me happy to go to work every morning.

 

My experience

  • During my occupational therapy training in Lausanne, I had the opportunity to do two internships in paediatrics: one in a special school with children with cerebral palsy and one in a paediatric occupational therapy practice in Orbe, where I was able to consolidate my knowledge.
  • I work at Ergo-Léman since August 2021
