Services Connect2Care offers for sensory processing
Connect2Care lists sensory processing as a service area for paediatric occupational therapy. Sensory processing difficulties can affect how children respond to everyday stimuli such as sounds, textures, movement and touch. An occupational therapist typically addresses these challenges through graded sensory activities designed to help children become more comfortable and regulated in their environment.
According to Connect2Care's listing, sensory processing support may include activities such as work with sensory swings or platforms to help children develop better balance and body awareness, use of weighted equipment like blankets or vests to provide calming input, and exposure to different textures through play-based activities. The clinic may also incorporate movement breaks, proprioceptive activities, and environmental modifications to support a child's sensory needs throughout the day.
Children with sensory processing difficulties may be eligible for NDIS funding (2025-26 rates) if they meet eligibility criteria. Parents considering Connect2Care should confirm the clinic's current NDIS registration status directly, as this has not been independently verified in the directory snapshot. An occupational therapist cannot diagnose sensory processing disorder, autism or ADHD; however, they can work with children who have been diagnosed by a medical professional to support functional skills and participation in daily activities.

Common questions
How does occupational therapy help children with sensory processing difficulties?
Occupational therapists use graded sensory activities to help children become more comfortable with different stimuli. This might include movement activities, texture exploration, or use of equipment like swings or weighted items. The goal is to support the child's ability to participate in everyday routines such as eating, dressing, playing and learning at school or home.
Can an occupational therapist diagnose sensory processing disorder?
No. An occupational therapist cannot diagnose sensory processing disorder, autism or ADHD. A diagnosis must come from a medical professional such as a paediatrician or psychologist. However, an OT can work with children who have been diagnosed to address sensory-related challenges affecting daily functioning.
Can NDIS funding be used for sensory processing support at Connect2Care?
Connect2Care is listed as NDIS registered in the directory, though this has not been independently verified. If your child is NDIS eligible, you may be able to use funding for occupational therapy services. Contact the clinic directly to confirm current registration status and discuss how NDIS funding arrangements (2025-26) might apply to your child's needs.
