Paediatric Occupational Therapy (OT) is all about helping kids live their best lives! Our sessions aim to be fun, engaging and empowering for your child, using their hobbies/passions/areas of interest as a therapuetic tool to achieve their goals. We can provide OT sessions in whichever environments are relevant to your child's goals - school, day care, kindy, home, or even the park or beach!
What does an OT do?
The Power of Play
Play is more than just fun; it's a powerful tool through which children learn, explore, and build essential skills naturally and enjoyably. We harness the therapeutic potential of play to help our young clients and their families reach their goals.
Our goal is to make therapy an enjoyable journey, aligning with the family's objectives. Whether it's improving motor skills, building confidence, or enhancing social connections, play is the vehicle that gets us there. We use the power of play to transform therapy sessions into an exciting adventure of learning and achievement.
Collaboration: A key to Success
At Little Stars Occupational Therapy, we understand that achieving meaningful results for each unique child requires a team effort. We work in partnership with parents, schools, and healthcare providers to tailor interventions to meet your child's individual needs and goals.
By immersing therapy in the child's meaningful environments (home, school, kindy, day care, community settings), we ensure that the skills developed in therapy are seamlessly integrated into their daily life.
