About the Founder

About Cubhouse

Hi, I’m Ayesha Raza! I am the founder of Cubhouse Pediatric Therapy LLC and a passionate Pediatric Occupational Therapist. My clinical work is deeply rooted in providing playful, neurodiversity-affirming care that is tailored entirely to each child’s unique strengths, interests, and emotional needs. My vision is to establish an intentional, community-based practice that meets families exactly where they are. Treating in these everyday community spaces allows us to support sensory processing, emotional regulation, and developmental milestones in meaningful, real-world contexts. I am deeply committed to partnering with parents and building a warm, collaborative "home base" where families feel empowered and every child can truly thrive.

Cubhouse Pediatric Therapy is a mobile pediatric occupational therapy, speech-language pathology, and psychotherapy practice supporting children and families across the Greater Toronto Area in Ontario, Canada and Austin, Texas. We provide in-home, school-based, and community-based OT, SLP, and psychotherapy services that support children’s regulation, communication, emotional wellbeing, and everyday participation, helping them build confidence, independence, and meaningful life skills.

Our Mission

To create a nurturing “cubhouse” where every child feels understood, respected, and empowered to grow. We believe therapy should feel safe, playful, and aligned with a child’s identity and strengths.

Our Approach

Our work is grounded in play-based, culturally responsive, and family-centred care. Parents and caregivers are essential partners in every step of the process, collaborators, advocates, and decision-makers in their child’s therapeutic journey. Each child receives a comprehensive assessment followed by a fully individualized treatment plan tailored to their needs, strengths, and daily routines.

Where We Provide Therapy

Cubhouse Pediatric Therapy is fully mobile. We provide therapy in:

  • Your home

  • Your child’s school

  • Daycares and early learning centres

This model supports learning in the environments where children feel most comfortable, and where skills naturally generalize.
