Early intervention Support at Allied Health 2U — Across NSW
Allied Health 2U in Across NSW lists services that overlap with paediatric occupational therapy for early intervention.
Services Allied Health 2U offers for early intervention
Early childhood development relies on a child's ability to process and respond to sensory information from their environment. At Allied Health 2U, our occupational therapists support children whose sensory processing may be affecting their learning, play, and daily routines. Sensory processing therapy helps children become more comfortable with touch, movement, sound, and visual input—skills that form the foundation for school readiness and social participation.
Our interventions are tailored to each child's needs. Examples include using sensory swings or weighted blankets to help children who seek deep pressure input, creating calm-down spaces with visual supports and soft textures for children who become overwhelmed, and incorporating fine-motor activities like threading, playdough work, and scissor skills into play-based sessions. Allied Health 2U recognises that early intervention during the preschool years can make a meaningful difference in how children engage with learning and peers.
If your child may be eligible for NDIS funding in the 2025–26 financial year, our team can discuss how occupational therapy supports might be incorporated into your plan. We encourage families to speak with their GP or early childhood service if they have concerns about development, as occupational therapists cannot diagnose conditions such as autism or sensory processing disorder—however, we can identify functional difficulties and work collaboratively to address them.

About early intervention
Early childhood is a time of rapid development across play, movement, communication, self-care, and social skills. When concerns about a child's early development arise, paediatric occupational therapy is one of the allied health supports often involved.

Common questions
How do I know if my child needs sensory processing support?
Children may benefit from sensory support if they avoid certain textures or sounds, seem clumsy, struggle with transitions, or have difficulty sitting still during activities. Common signs include covering ears in noisy places, refusing certain foods, or becoming distressed during routines like hair washing. Allied Health 2U recommends discussing observations with your GP or early childhood educator, who can refer you for an occupational therapy assessment.
Can occupational therapy diagnose autism or sensory processing disorder?
No, occupational therapists cannot diagnose autism, ADHD, or sensory processing disorder. However, we can assess how sensory sensitivities are affecting your child's everyday functioning—such as play, learning, and self-care—and recommend strategies to help. A diagnosis requires assessment by a paediatrician or psychologist. Allied Health 2U works alongside these professionals to support your child's development.
Does Allied Health 2U accept NDIS funding?
We recommend contacting Allied Health 2U directly to confirm current NDIS registration and funding arrangements for 2025–26. Many families use NDIS plans to fund occupational therapy sessions. If your child is not yet NDIS-eligible, we can discuss private session options and help you understand what early intervention support might look like for your family.
