Services KiddOTherapy offers for adhd
Children with ADHD and attention difficulties often benefit from targeted occupational therapy support. At KiddOTherapy in Blacktown, we address two key areas that frequently impact focus and learning: sensory processing and handwriting skills.
Sensory processing difficulties can make it hard for children to filter distractions and regulate their attention. Our sensory interventions help children develop better body awareness and self-regulation. Examples include using sensory swings or weighted blankets to provide calming input, and movement-based activities like obstacle courses that help organise the nervous system. These strategies can support improved concentration during schoolwork and daily routines.
Handwriting challenges often co-occur with attention difficulties, creating frustration during writing tasks. KiddOTherapy uses fine-motor exercises, pencil-grip training, and postural strategies to make writing easier and less taxing on attention resources. When writing feels smoother, children can focus more on the content rather than the physical effort.
Both services are designed to be practical and home-friendly. If your child is NDIS-registered, occupational therapy support may be funded under your plan for the 2025-26 financial year. We recommend discussing your child's specific needs during an initial consultation to determine the best approach.

About adhd
ADHD (Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder) is a developmental difference that affects attention, activity level, and impulse control. In Australia, ADHD is diagnosed by a paediatrician, psychiatrist, or psychologist, often after a family or school notices ongoing differences in attention, behaviour, or self-regulation across multiple settings.

Common questions
Can an occupational therapist diagnose ADHD?
No, occupational therapists cannot diagnose ADHD—this requires assessment by a medical professional or psychologist. However, KiddOTherapy can identify how attention difficulties affect your child's daily functioning and provide strategies to support focus, organisation, and task completion in practical ways.
How does sensory work help with attention?
When children's sensory systems are better regulated, they can filter distractions more easily and sustain focus. Sensory activities at KiddOTherapy—like movement breaks or weighted tools—help calm an overactive nervous system or energise an under-responsive one, creating a better foundation for attention and learning.
Will NDIS funding cover these services?
Many children with NDIS plans have occupational therapy listed as a funded support. Coverage depends on your individual plan. We recommend checking your plan details or contacting your NDIS planner. KiddOTherapy can discuss funding options during your initial appointment for the 2025-26 financial year.
