What is paediatric occupational therapy and how does it help?
Paediatric occupational therapy supports children to build the skills they need for everyday life so they can participate more independently and confidently at home, at school, and in the community. It focuses on the “occupations” of childhood, such as self-care, play, learning, and social participation, using play-based, goal-directed activities to help children practice and strengthen these skills
We offer personalised support for children across a wide range of developmental areas, including motor skills, sensory processing, emotional regulation, self-care, play, and learning. By targeting these foundations, occupational therapy can make daily tasks like dressing, feeding, writing, joining in games, and managing big feelings feel easier and more successful for your child.
​
Our team provides comprehensive paediatric therapy services plus practical strategies to help your child thrive at home, in school, and in the community. Whether you're seeking hands-on support, assistive equipment, NDIS reports, or online services, we're here to guide you every step of the way so your child can build confidence, independence, and a stronger sense of wellbeing in everyday life.
