Meet Our Director

Hi, I’m Adam — the founder of Necessity Kids and Necessity Health, but more importantly, a husband, a dad of four, and someone who’s deeply committed to creating real, lasting impact in the lives of children and families.

My journey started in healthcare as an osteopath, where I’ve spent nearly two decades helping people live better, more functional lives. But it wasn’t until I became a dad that the real fire was lit. Raising four kids has shaped not only how I view health but also how I lead teams, build services, and support families through complex challenges. I know firsthand how chaotic and beautiful the early years can be, and I wanted to create a space that truly supports families through it all.

That’s what Necessity Kids is about — not just therapy, but connection, clarity, and genuine care. Whether we’re delivering early intervention, offering support through key workers, or growing our team of incredible OTs, speechies, and Key Workers everything we do is grounded in real family life.

I'm obsessed with systems that make life easier (for both clients and clinicians), and I'm always thinking ahead — whether it’s building new services, supporting our team to thrive, or creating content that helps parents and carers feel more confident. I also believe in investing in people, which is why we focus so heavily on team culture, mentoring, and storytelling.

These days, I’ve stepped back from day-to-day clinical work so I can lead our growth with more intention, work on our bigger vision, and spend more time being a present dad and husband. But you’ll still see me around — sharing ideas, filming videos, and having way too much coffee while cheering on our incredible team.

If you're a parent, carer, or therapist, my door’s always open. Thanks for being part of the journey — we’re building something really special here.

A Note of Gratitude from Our General Manager, Kerri Murada

As the General Manager of Necessity Kids, I feel incredibly proud and privileged to lead such an inspiring and dedicated team. Every day, I witness the passion, care, and commitment our staff bring to the children and families we support, and it’s truly an honour to be part of something so meaningful.

With many years of experience in operations and service delivery, my focus is on ensuring our services run smoothly and our clients receive the highest standard of care. From scheduling and staff coordination to financial oversight and program development, I’m committed to creating an environment where both our team and the families we support can thrive.

What drives me most is the opportunity to work alongside such a talented group of professionals who go above and beyond — not only for our clients but for one another. Together, we continuously look for ways to improve, innovate, and deliver services that truly make a difference in the lives of children.

Thank you to the incredible team at Necessity Kids — your hard work, compassion, and dedication are the heart of everything we do. I’m so grateful to lead this journey with you.
