Services IPC Health Occupational Therapy for Children offers for early intervention
Early childhood development relies on a child's ability to process and respond to sensory information from their environment. IPC Health Occupational Therapy for Children supports children with sensory processing difficulties by helping them develop better awareness and regulation of touch, movement, sound, and visual input. Through tailored sensory activities, our occupational therapists work with children to strengthen their foundational skills for learning, play, and daily routines. Examples of interventions include using sensory swings or weighted blankets to help children feel more grounded and organised, engaging in fine-motor activities like threading beads or playdough manipulation to build hand strength and coordination, and creating calm-down spaces with visual supports to help children recognise and manage their sensory needs. These strategies support children's readiness for school and social participation. If your child may be eligible for NDIS funding (2025–26), IPC Health Occupational Therapy for Children can work with families to explore how therapy costs might be covered. It's important to note that occupational therapists cannot diagnose conditions such as autism or sensory processing disorder; however, they can identify sensory challenges and design practical strategies to help your child thrive.

About early intervention
Early childhood is a time of rapid development across play, movement, communication, self-care, and social skills. When concerns about a child's early development arise, paediatric occupational therapy is one of the allied health supports often involved.

Common questions
How do I know if my child has sensory processing difficulties?
Children with sensory processing difficulties may avoid certain textures, sounds, or movements; seem clumsy or uncoordinated; struggle with transitions; or become overwhelmed in busy environments. An occupational therapist at IPC Health can observe your child's responses and discuss your concerns, though they cannot diagnose conditions like autism or sensory processing disorder. They can identify specific sensory challenges and recommend strategies to support your child.
What age can my child start occupational therapy?
Occupational therapy can support children from infancy through early childhood. IPC Health Occupational Therapy for Children tailors activities to suit your child's developmental stage, whether they're learning to grasp objects, developing coordination, or preparing for school. Early intervention can help build confidence and skills during important developmental windows.
Can NDIS funding help pay for therapy?
Some families access occupational therapy through NDIS funding. IPC Health Occupational Therapy for Children can discuss your situation and help you understand potential funding options under the 2025–26 NDIS pricing arrangements. We recommend contacting the clinic directly to explore what support may be available for your family.
