The first step is a clinician-led developmental check, so therapy is matched precisely to what your child needs today.What occupational therapy supports
Paediatric occupational therapy is far more than "hand exercises". A trained occupational therapist helps your child with:- Fine-motor and self-care skills — grasping, buttoning, using a spoon, handwriting readiness
- Sensory processing — managing responses to sound, touch, movement and light so daily routines feel calmer
- Attention, play and regulation — building focus and the ability to engage with everyday tasks
- Coordination and motor planning — the steps between wanting to do something and doing it
Sessions are warm, play-based and goal-led, and progress is tracked the same way each time so you can see how far your child is travelling.

Try this at home
You don't need to prepare your child or carry past reports to begin. Bring your everyday observations — what's tricky at home and at school — as these matter most to the therapist.
