Services BestCare Occupational Therapy offers for handwriting
BestCare Occupational Therapy lists handwriting support as a service for children experiencing difficulties with writing skills. Handwriting involves coordination between fine motor control, hand strength, visual perception, and the ability to plan and execute letter formation. According to its listing, the clinic addresses these foundational areas through targeted intervention.
Handwriting support typically involves activities designed to build the underlying skills children need for writing. Examples of interventions that occupational therapists commonly use include fine motor exercises such as threading, pegboard activities, and scissor practice to strengthen finger dexterity and control. Postural and hand positioning work helps children develop the stability needed to hold a pencil effectively and maintain posture at a desk. Visual-motor activities, such as tracing, copying patterns, and letter formation practice, support the connection between what a child sees and what their hand produces on the page.
BestCare Occupational Therapy's handwriting service may be funded through NDIS support plans (2025-26) for eligible children, depending on individual plan allocations and goals. Parents considering this service should discuss with the clinic how handwriting difficulties are assessed and what specific strategies would be tailored to their child's needs. It is important to note that occupational therapists do not diagnose conditions such as dysgraphia, autism, or ADHD; however, they can support children experiencing handwriting challenges regardless of underlying cause.

About handwriting
Handwriting difficulties are one of the most common reasons families seek paediatric occupational therapy. Writing draws on many skills — fine motor control, posture, visual-motor integration, attention, and the ability to translate ideas into letters on a page.

Common questions
How does BestCare Occupational Therapy assess handwriting difficulties?
The clinic would typically assess handwriting through observation of how a child holds a pencil, their posture, letter formation, speed, and legibility. An occupational therapist may also evaluate fine motor skills, hand strength, and visual perception abilities that underpin writing. Assessment findings help identify which specific areas need support and guide intervention planning.
Can occupational therapy help if my child has been diagnosed with dysgraphia or another condition affecting writing?
Occupational therapists support children with handwriting difficulties from various causes. However, occupational therapists do not diagnose conditions like dysgraphia. If your child has a diagnosis, BestCare Occupational Therapy can work with that information to address the functional handwriting challenges your child experiences in daily activities and learning.
Is BestCare Occupational Therapy NDIS registered, and can handwriting support be funded?
BestCare Occupational Therapy is listed as NDIS registered according to its directory listing, though this has not been independently verified. If your child has an NDIS plan, handwriting support may be fundable depending on your plan goals and available budget. Contact the clinic directly to discuss eligibility and how services align with your child's plan.
