Children’s Occupational Therapy

• OT-Assist work with children of all ages  to address developmental delays or challenges. We assess a child’s abilities and tailor interventions to help them reach important developmental milestones.


• We conduct comprehensive assessments to evaluate a child’s sensory processing, fine motor skills, gross motor skills, visual-motor integration, and other areas of development. These assessments help identify areas where a child may be struggling.


• Based on the assessment results, individualised treatment plans are tailored to a child’s specific needs and goals. These plans may include various activities and interventions designed to improve skills and promote independence.


• We work with children with sensory processing disorders and use sensory integration techniques to help children process sensory information more effectively and participate in daily activities without being overwhelmed.


• We work to improve a child’s fine motor skills, such as handwriting, cutting, and buttoning, as well as gross motor skills, such as balance, coordination, and strength. These skills are essential for tasks like dressing, playing, and self-care.


• OT-Assist work with children with sensory processing difficulties that may have trouble self-regulating their emotions and responses to sensory input. OT-Assist help children develop strategies to better manage their sensory experiences and emotional reactions.


• We recommend specialist equipment and assistive devices to help children with physical or sensory challenges to enhance their ability to perform daily activities.


• We use play centered approach as a therapeutic tool, engaging the child in activities while working on specific skills in a fun and natural way.


• OT-Assist develop home-based programs and activities that parents or carers can use into a child’s daily routine to reinforce therapy goals.

Occupational therapists are proud to use evidence informed practice. That means we base our treatments on science and research. But, that does not mean there are cut-and-dry solutions for everything. Every session is different, because every child is different.
