Sensory processing Support at Grace Children's Therapy — Across NSW

Grace Children's Therapy supports children with sensory processing difficulties through two key service areas. Our sensory processing service helps children who struggle with how their bodies interpret touch, movement, sound, or visual information. We use tailored activities such as sensory swing work, weighted blankets and vests, and obstacle courses to help children regulate their responses and feel more comfortable in everyday environments. Our fine motor service addresses the coordination and strength challenges that often accompany sensory processing difficulties, using activities like threading, scissor work, and hand-strengthening exercises. These services work together—for example, a child might use a weighted lap pad during fine motor activities to improve focus, or practise bilateral coordination tasks on a therapy ball to develop body awareness. Grace Children's Therapy can support children whether they're funded through the NDIS (2025-26 funding arrangements) or through private sessions. An occupational therapist cannot diagnose sensory processing disorder, autism, or ADHD, but we can identify sensory challenges and develop strategies to help your child thrive at home, school, and in the community.
