Services Alex Sydney Paediatrics offers for autism
Alex Sydney Paediatrics provides occupational therapy support for children with autism spectrum disorder across NSW, focusing on developing everyday skills and managing sensory sensitivities. Our occupational therapists work with each child's unique profile to address challenges with self-care routines, social participation, and sensory processing. Common interventions include structured fine-motor activities such as threading, cutting, and handwriting practice to build independence with eating and dressing; sensory regulation strategies using weighted equipment, movement breaks, and calming activities to help children manage transitions and reduce anxiety; and visual supports like picture schedules and social stories to clarify expectations in daily routines. Alex Sydney Paediatrics tailors therapy to each child's interests and strengths, making learning engaging and meaningful. Many families access our services through NDIS funding, which can cover occupational therapy goals related to daily living, communication, and community participation. We recommend discussing your child's specific needs with our team to explore how therapy can support their development. Please note that occupational therapists do not diagnose autism; diagnosis is provided by medical professionals.

About autism
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a developmental difference that shapes how children process information, communicate, and respond to their sensory environment. In Australia, autism is identified across a wide range of ages, and many families first speak with a GP or paediatrician about referrals for assessment after noticing differences in play, communication, sensory responses, or daily routines.
