Amy Seeary is the Clinical Co-ordinator and a Registered Nurse at CPSN. She values the variety and scope of her role, enjoying the chance to create engaging and personalized experiences with clients in the Disability Community.
Amy’s four years at CPSN have been fulfilling. She manages numerous clinical home visits for high-intensity clients and their Support Workers in the Supported Independent Living (SIL) program. She finds great satisfaction in connecting with families at the beginning of their child’s Cerebral Palsy (CP) journey.

"I enjoy visiting clients or talking with members over the phone—whether it’s inquiries about health-related matters or using my personal experience to support families."
Pathways to Nursing & Disability
Before finding her Nursing career, Amy worked as a Support Worker while studying to become a Nurse. Over the years, she’s gained experience in Mental Health and as a Nurse Educator.
Amy feels fortunate to combine her nursing expertise with her lived experience of Disability within her family. Her twin sons were born prematurely and diagnosed with CP at 18 months old.
“Having twins with CP has made me passionate about supporting families as they navigate both the disability and health sectors—from diagnosis to finding a support plan that’s best for both the child and the family."
Nursing All-Rounder – A Valuable Resource
Amy provides several Nursing Services at CPSN, including NDIS reports, Care plans, Assessments, Continence support, Wound care, and Medication management. She also writes Nursing reports to help clients secure funding, which she finds deeply rewarding.
Amy has found her niche at CPSN, contributing to co-designing the future of the Disability sector through her personal and professional experiences as a carer and by sitting on various committees. She values her colleagues, many of whom share lived experiences of CP, understanding the challenges Disability presents. CPSN is known for being compassionate, experienced, and supportive, actively listening to feedback.
Amy and Her Twin Sons
A challenge Amy faced as a parent of children with CP was the lack of accessible information in the early years.
Now, Amy makes it a priority to ensure everyone she speaks to has access to the necessary support, whether it’s for health advice, information, or community contacts.
"I’ve also noticed the scarcity of health sector services for adults with CP and other complex disabilities. I’m passionate about joining any initiatives aimed at improving access to specialist services for adults with CP."
Amy’s Top Three Tips for Supporting Those with CP
- Each stage of your child's development will bring different needs, joys, and challenges. Connecting with other families facing similar experiences can be incredibly helpful. Take things at your own pace and remember to practice self-care. It’s vital to care for yourself to better support others.
- "Enjoy your child or children, and don't forget to take breaks from therapy to do fun things. When my boys were little, we were always busy with appointments, but when we could take a step back and enjoy family activities, it felt restorative. I now strive to balance therapy, appointments, and allowing my boys to simply be ‘kids.’ "
- Always trust your intuition, whether it’s about yourself or someone you’re supporting.

Amy's Hobbies and Interests Outside of Work
Amy spends much of her time with her busy family. They enjoy getting out with friends and family, particularly traveling. Last year, they had a wonderful trip to the U.S. When she gets a chance, Amy loves reading and has recently started Pilates again.
