Hope Kids OT Burwood in Across VIC lists services that overlap with paediatric occupational therapy for autism.
Services Hope Kids OT Burwood offers for autism
Children with autism spectrum disorder often experience differences in how they process sensory information, which can affect their daily functioning and participation in activities. Hope Kids OT Burwood offers sensory processing support to help children develop better awareness and responses to sensory input from their environment. Our occupational therapists work with children using tailored interventions such as sensory diet activities (including use of sensory swings and weighted equipment to provide calming input), fine motor exercises to build hand strength and coordination, and structured environmental modifications to reduce overwhelming stimuli. These strategies help children engage more comfortably in school, home, and community settings. Many families access Hope Kids OT Burwood's services through NDIS funding, which can cover occupational therapy support for eligible participants. It's important to note that occupational therapists cannot diagnose autism spectrum disorder; however, we can assess sensory processing patterns and develop strategies to support your child's participation and wellbeing. The 2025-26 NDIS pricing arrangements may assist with funding these therapeutic supports.

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.
