National 360 Bendigo in Kennington, VIC lists services that overlap with paediatric occupational therapy for autism.
Services National 360 Bendigo offers for autism
Early intervention is crucial for children with autism spectrum disorder, and National 360 Bendigo provides occupational therapy support to help children develop skills for everyday participation. Through early intervention, our occupational therapists work with children to address sensory sensitivities, motor coordination, and self-care routines that may present challenges. Examples of interventions include sensory-based activities such as using weighted blankets or fidget tools to support regulation, fine-motor exercises like threading beads or scissor practice to build hand strength, and visual schedules to support transitions between activities. National 360 Bendigo tailors these approaches to each child's individual needs and learning style. Early intervention services can be funded through the NDIS (2025-26 pricing arrangements), which supports eligible children under school age. Our team works collaboratively with families and other professionals to create meaningful goals that support your child's participation at home, in the community, and preparing for school. Starting therapy early can help build foundational skills and confidence during important developmental years.

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 child with autism?
Occupational therapists support children with autism by addressing sensory needs, motor skills, and daily living routines. However, occupational therapists cannot diagnose autism—diagnosis comes from medical professionals. National 360 Bendigo can help your child develop skills to participate more independently in everyday activities, whether that's self-care, play, or school readiness, based on their individual needs.
How do I access services at National 360 Bendigo, and what about funding?
We encourage you to contact National 360 Bendigo directly to discuss your child's needs and how we can support them. Many families access early intervention services through NDIS funding (2025-26 pricing arrangements apply). We can discuss funding options and pathways with you. Some families also access services through private payment or other schemes.
What should I expect in early intervention sessions?
Early intervention sessions are play-based and tailored to your child's interests and developmental level. Our occupational therapists work with you and your child to build skills in areas like sensory regulation, fine and gross motor coordination, and self-care routines. Sessions typically involve hands-on activities, and we provide strategies you can use at home to support your child's progress.
