WHO WE ARE.
MISSION & HISTORY.
Brave Development exists with the sole purpose to invest in the next generation of South Africa.
We do so by better encouraging, empowering and equipping not only the nation's children but also the parents and other professionals working in the field of education / paediatrics.
​
We are an occupational therapy practice with a passion for people.
We believe in the untapped potential of our nation's children and so aim to assist them with facing, and eventually overcoming the hinderances they might be facing in their home, social and / or academic spheres.
​
We are proudly South African with an unshakable hope for our nation's future.
OUR VALUES.
We partner with parents and other professionals.
To best serve the children that we have been entrusted with.
We play with purpose.
As we believe that play is a critical tool required for quality connection and optimal investment in our children.
We honour the process.
By acknowledging that anything of real value takes time, patience, and perseverance. We shift the focus away from the product and performance and more to the joy of the process.
We love people.
Because people matter most.
