Our team of experienced Occupational Therapists support children, their families and teachers to help them thrive.
Living outside of a city shouldn’t mean you can’t access the services your child needs.
Our NDIS & Early Childhood Approach (ECA) funded therapies are designed to support your child’s learning and development throughout rural and remote NSW.
Through in-person and telecare therapy, we provide high-quality, personalised NDIS & ECA funded services for children between 2 and 12.
Our Occupational Therapists can help children by looking at the building block of development so they can be more independent and engage in meaningful activities in their world. They can help with:
- Building gross and fine motor skills
- Play skills
- Self-care skills to increase independence
- Sharing ideas to children who react differently to certain sensations
- Building skills and sharing ideas to support regulation, learning and friendships at school and home

Occupational Therapy
Occupational therapists (OTs) assist children in daily activities that bring meaning to their lives. They focus on development, helping children become more independent and engage in meaningful tasks.
Psychology
Psychologists assist children with social-emotional difficulties that can hugely impact their behaviour, and their ability to interact with other people, and the environment around them to help them thrive.
