Services Little Steps offers for sensory processing
Little Steps lists sensory processing as a service area for children with sensory sensitivities and processing difficulties. According to its listing, the clinic addresses how children respond to sensory input from their environment—such as touch, sound, movement, and visual stimuli—which can affect their comfort, learning, and participation in daily activities.
Sensory processing support typically involves structured activities designed to help children become more regulated and responsive to their surroundings. Examples of interventions that occupational therapists commonly use include work with sensory equipment such as swings or weighted blankets to provide calming input, fine-motor activities using textured materials or small-object manipulation to build tolerance and skill, and environmental modifications like visual schedules or reduced lighting to support predictability. Little Steps may tailor these approaches based on each child's individual sensory profile.
For families accessing NDIS funding in 2025-26, sensory processing support may be eligible under occupational therapy goals if it relates to participation, independence, or functional capacity. Parents considering Little Steps should note that occupational therapists cannot diagnose sensory processing disorder; diagnosis typically comes from a paediatrician or developmental specialist. The clinic's listing indicates NDIS registration, though this has not been independently verified through the directory.
