Services Community Health Occupational Therapy service offers for early intervention
Community Health Occupational Therapy service supports children with early childhood development through targeted sensory processing work. Sensory processing difficulties can affect how children respond to everyday experiences like touch, movement, sound and visual input, which may impact their play, learning and social participation. At Community Health Occupational Therapy service, occupational therapists use evidence-based strategies to help children develop better sensory awareness and regulation. Examples include structured sensory activities such as using sensory swings or weighted blankets to help children who are under-responsive to sensory input, fine-motor play activities like threading beads or playdough manipulation to build hand strength and coordination, and environmental modifications such as creating calm spaces with reduced visual or auditory stimulation. The clinic works with families to embed these strategies into everyday routines at home and in the community. If your child may be eligible for NDIS support, Community Health Occupational Therapy service can discuss how funding arrangements under the 2025-26 scheme might assist with ongoing therapy. An occupational therapist cannot diagnose conditions like autism or sensory processing disorder, but can identify functional difficulties and recommend appropriate support.

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 has sensory processing difficulties?
Children with sensory processing difficulties may avoid certain textures or sounds, seem clumsy, struggle with transitions, or seek intense physical input like jumping or spinning. An occupational therapist at Community Health Occupational Therapy service can observe your child's responses during play and daily activities to identify patterns. However, only a paediatrician or developmental specialist can formally diagnose sensory processing disorder.
Can occupational therapy help my child before they receive a diagnosis?
Yes. Community Health Occupational Therapy service can support children with developmental concerns regardless of formal diagnosis. Early intervention focuses on building skills and confidence in everyday activities. If sensory difficulties are affecting your child's play, learning or participation, an occupational therapist can help address functional goals.
Does Community Health Occupational Therapy service accept NDIS funding?
NDIS registration status for Community Health Occupational Therapy service has not been confirmed. We recommend contacting the clinic directly to discuss funding options available to your family, including private fees and potential NDIS pathways under the 2025-26 scheme if your child is eligible.
