Autism Support at Home Grown Child Development — Across NSW
Home Grown Child Development in Across NSW lists services that overlap with paediatric occupational therapy for autism.
Services Home Grown Child Development offers for autism
Home Grown Child Development supports children with autism spectrum disorder through two key service areas: autism-focused occupational therapy and sensory processing support. Children with autism often experience differences in how they process sensory information and manage daily activities, and our occupational therapists work with each child's unique needs. Sensory processing interventions might include activities like using a sensory swing to help with vestibular input and body awareness, or working with weighted equipment to provide calming proprioceptive feedback. Fine motor activities tailored to the child's interests help develop skills for writing, self-care, and play. Home Grown Child Development also supports families in creating visual schedules and environmental modifications that help children navigate routines more independently. We work collaboratively with families to identify goals that matter most to them. While occupational therapists cannot diagnose autism spectrum disorder, we can assess how sensory and motor differences affect your child's participation in everyday activities. Many families access our services through NDIS funding (2025-26 pricing arrangements), and we encourage you to discuss your child's eligibility and funding options with us during your initial consultation.

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 an occupational therapist diagnose autism?
No, occupational therapists cannot diagnose autism spectrum disorder. However, we can assess how sensory processing, motor skills, and daily living activities are affected by autism. If you're seeking diagnosis, your GP can refer you to a paediatrician or developmental specialist. Home Grown Child Development works alongside diagnostic professionals to support your child's development.
How does sensory processing support help my autistic child?
Many autistic children experience sensory sensitivities or seek certain sensory inputs. Our occupational therapists use evidence-informed strategies like sensory activities, environmental adjustments, and coping techniques tailored to your child's needs. This helps them feel more regulated, engaged, and able to participate in school, home, and community activities.
Does Home Grown Child Development accept NDIS funding?
We encourage families to contact us directly about funding arrangements and how we can support your child's NDIS plan. Discuss your child's eligibility and available funding with the NDIA, and let us know your plan details. We're happy to work with you to explore how occupational therapy services can be accessed.
