Services daar offers for autism
Daar provides occupational therapy support tailored to help children with autism spectrum disorder develop skills for everyday living and learning. Our therapists work with each child's unique strengths and sensory needs, addressing challenges that may affect participation at home, school, and in the community. Through daar's autism-focused services, children engage in carefully designed activities such as sensory integration work using equipment like weighted blankets and body socks to help regulate responses to touch and movement, fine motor skill development through play-based activities like threading, cutting, and handwriting practice, and the use of visual supports and structured routines to support transitions and daily tasks. Our occupational therapists also collaborate with families to create strategies that work across different environments. Many families access daar's services through NDIS funding, with support available under the 2025-26 funding arrangements. While occupational therapy cannot diagnose autism, our therapists are experienced in supporting the specific functional challenges that children with autism often experience, helping them build confidence and independence in activities that matter most to their families.

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.

Common questions
Can occupational therapy help my child with autism?
Occupational therapy can support children with autism by addressing functional challenges like sensory sensitivities, fine motor skills, self-care routines, and social participation. However, occupational therapists cannot diagnose autism. Daar's therapists work with your child's existing diagnosis to develop practical strategies that help them engage more confidently in daily activities at home and school.
How does daar work with NDIS funding?
Daar is registered with the NDIS, making it easier for families with NDIS plans to access our services. We can work with your plan to deliver occupational therapy support aligned with your child's goals. We recommend discussing your child's needs with your NDIS planner to ensure autism-related support is included in your 2025-26 plan allocation.
