ADHD Support at NSW Paediatrics — Double Bay, NSW

NSW Paediatrics lists ADHD support among its services for children. Occupational therapy for attention difficulties typically focuses on helping children develop skills for focus, organisation, and self-regulation in everyday settings such as school and home. According to its listing, the clinic may use strategies such as sensory-based activities to help children manage their arousal levels—for example, using weighted equipment or movement breaks to support concentration during tasks. NSW Paediatrics may also work on executive function skills through structured routines and visual supports, such as picture schedules or task checklists, to help children plan and complete activities independently. Fine-motor and coordination work can support children who experience restlessness or fidgeting, potentially making sitting and focusing easier during schoolwork or mealtimes.

Occupational therapy does not diagnose ADHD; diagnosis is a medical role. However, an occupational therapist can assess how attention difficulties affect a child's participation in daily activities and school. Families accessing services through NDIS funding (2025-26) may be able to claim occupational therapy costs under their plan. NDIS registration status for NSW Paediatrics has not been confirmed in the current directory snapshot, so families should contact the clinic directly to discuss funding options and eligibility.
