Autism Support at Learn and Flourish — Leeming, WA
Learn and Flourish in Leeming, WA lists services that overlap with paediatric occupational therapy for autism.
Services Learn and Flourish offers for autism
Children with autism spectrum disorder often experience differences in sensory processing and fine motor development, which can impact daily activities like eating, writing, and self-care. Learn and Flourish supports these areas through targeted occupational therapy tailored to each child's needs. Our sensory processing work includes activities such as using sensory swings and weighted equipment to help children regulate their responses to touch, movement, and sound—common challenges for autistic children. Fine motor interventions focus on building hand strength and coordination through play-based activities like threading, cutting, and pencil control exercises. These skills support independence in school and home environments. Learn and Flourish in Leeming works collaboratively with families to understand each child's sensory preferences and motor abilities, developing strategies that can be used across different settings. Many families access our services through NDIS funding (2025-26 rates apply), which can cover occupational therapy support. We recommend discussing your child's specific needs with your GP or paediatrician, as occupational therapists cannot diagnose autism spectrum disorder but can assess and support the developmental areas affected by it.

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 occupational therapy help my autistic child with sensory sensitivities?
Yes. Occupational therapists can assess sensory processing differences and suggest strategies to help your child manage sensitivities to sounds, textures, or movement. Learn and Flourish uses graded sensory activities to support regulation and coping skills. However, an OT cannot diagnose sensory processing disorder—this requires a multidisciplinary assessment. We work alongside your child's medical team to support their overall development.
How can occupational therapy improve my child's fine motor skills?
Fine motor therapy targets hand strength, coordination, and control through purposeful, play-based activities. This supports writing, self-feeding, dressing, and other daily tasks. Learn and Flourish tailors activities to your child's interests and abilities, making practice engaging rather than frustrating. Progress is gradual and individual to each child.
Can we access Learn and Flourish through NDIS funding?
Many families use NDIS funding to access occupational therapy services. NDIS pricing for 2025-26 applies to eligible participants. We recommend checking your child's NDIS plan to see if occupational therapy is included and contacting Learn and Flourish directly to discuss funding options and how we can support your child's goals.
