oCCUPATIONAL tHERAPY FOR nEURODEVELOPMENT

Paediatric occupational therapy focuses on helping children develop the skills they need to perform everyday activities, from getting dressed and eating independently to participating in play and school tasks. It’s especially beneficial for children facing developmental delays, neurological challenges, or sensory processing difficulties.

Our goal is to support your child's ability to learn, interact, and thrive by addressing the unique challenges they face in their developmental journey.

Sensory Processing Support
