ADHD Support at Making Milestones — Welland, SA
Making Milestones in Welland, SA lists services that overlap with paediatric occupational therapy for adhd.
Services Making Milestones offers for adhd
Children with ADHD and attention difficulties often experience challenges with sensory processing and fine motor control, which can impact their ability to focus, organise themselves, and engage in daily activities. At Making Milestones in Welland, our occupational therapists address these interconnected areas through tailored interventions. Sensory processing support helps children regulate their nervous system—for example, we might use weighted equipment or movement-based activities to help a child settle before schoolwork, or incorporate sensory breaks using items like fidget tools to support sustained attention. Fine motor work targets the precision and coordination needed for writing, fastening buttons, or using scissors, which reduces frustration during academic tasks. Making Milestones also helps families establish routines and environmental adjustments that support focus and self-regulation. If your child has been diagnosed with ADHD, our occupational therapists can work alongside your medical team to address the functional challenges you're noticing at home and school. Many families access our services through NDIS funding in the 2025-26 financial year, which can cover personalised therapy tailored to your child's specific needs and goals.

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—that requires assessment by a medical professional such as a paediatrician or psychologist. However, our therapists at Making Milestones can identify functional difficulties with attention, organisation, and motor skills, then work with you and your child's medical team to support these areas through targeted therapy and practical strategies.
How can NDIS funding help us access therapy at Making Milestones?
Making Milestones is NDIS registered, meaning eligible participants can use their funding to access occupational therapy services. We can help you understand how your plan supports sensory processing and fine motor goals. Contact us to discuss your child's needs and how we can work within your 2025-26 funding allocation.
What should I expect in a first session?
During your initial appointment, our occupational therapist will listen to your concerns, observe your child's strengths and challenges, and ask about their daily routines at home and school. We'll then discuss a plan tailored to your family's priorities, which might include sensory strategies, fine motor activities, or environmental modifications to support attention and engagement.
