Our Team

Led by the leading authority in sensory integration, KickStart’s consultation team offers a professional and detailed evaluation to assess each and every child’s situation.

Kickstart means to "kick off a beautiful start for children."

In the past forty years, Ms. Wu has helped numerous families in China, Taiwan, and Hong Kong whose children suffer from sensory integration dysfunction.

In October 2013, Wu Tuan-wen founded “Kickstart Sensory Integration Education Company, Limited,” formerly “Wholistic Children’s Development Center.” The company’s Chinese listing is named after its CEO. 

With her rich clinical experience, Ms. Wu has walked side-by-side with parents and children on their journey to overcome trauma and emotional struggles. From its humble beginnings to the company it is today, Ms. Wu has devoted herself to the care of children. She promotes early learning, intensive programs, and teamwork by imparting her beliefs and principles about occupational therapy. It is our greatest hope that more families understand the importance of occupational therapy and how it can help children who suffer from sensory integration dysfunction.
