Services Macarthur Paediatric Occupational Therapy offers for early intervention
Early childhood is a critical period for developing sensory processing skills, which form the foundation for learning, play, and everyday activities. Macarthur Paediatric Occupational Therapy supports children in the Macarthur region of NSW by addressing sensory processing challenges that may affect how children interact with their environment. Sensory processing work helps children regulate their responses to sights, sounds, textures, and movement, enabling them to engage more confidently in daily routines and learning activities.
Our occupational therapists use evidence-based strategies tailored to each child's needs. Examples include sensory motor activities such as swinging, jumping on trampolines, or crawling through obstacle courses to help children develop body awareness and coordination. We also incorporate tactile exploration using different textures—sand, water, playdough—to build comfort with varied sensations. Fine motor activities like threading beads, using tweezers, and scribbling support hand strength and control. For families accessing NDIS funding in 2025–26, Macarthur Paediatric Occupational Therapy is registered to provide these services, helping make therapy accessible and affordable. Early intervention through sensory processing support can help children develop the skills needed to participate more fully in kindergarten, social play, and family life.

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 a sensory processing difficulty?
Children with sensory processing challenges may be unusually sensitive to sounds, textures, or movement; avoid certain activities; or seem clumsy. However, occupational therapists cannot diagnose conditions like autism or sensory processing disorder—that requires medical assessment. An OT can observe how your child responds to sensory experiences and recommend strategies to support them. If you have concerns, speak with your GP or early childhood educator first.
Can Macarthur Paediatric Occupational Therapy help if my child hasn't been formally diagnosed?
Yes. Our occupational therapists work with children showing developmental differences or sensory sensitivities, whether or not they have a diagnosis. Early support can help children develop skills and confidence. We focus on function—helping your child participate in everyday activities—rather than diagnosis. Many families start therapy through early intervention pathways or NDIS support.
How does NDIS funding work with your clinic?
Macarthur Paediatric Occupational Therapy is NDIS registered, meaning we can provide therapy to eligible participants. NDIS funding can cover occupational therapy sessions based on your child's plan. We recommend discussing your child's needs with your NDIS planner or early childhood coordinator to determine eligibility and funding allocation for 2025–26.
