Autism Support at OTS: AAAS — Across NSW
OTS: AAAS in Across NSW lists services that overlap with paediatric occupational therapy for autism.
Services OTS: AAAS offers for autism
OTS: AAAS provides occupational therapy support for children with autism spectrum disorder through two key service areas. Early intervention services help younger children develop foundational skills during critical developmental periods, addressing challenges with daily routines, social participation, and sensory processing. For example, our therapists might use visual schedules to support transitions between activities, or introduce sensory-based activities like controlled swinging to help children regulate their responses to environmental input. Fine motor services support children who experience difficulties with handwriting, self-care tasks, or play-based activities requiring hand coordination. OTS: AAAS uses targeted exercises such as threading activities, scissor practice, and manipulation games to build strength and control. Many families access these services through NDIS funding (2025-26 pricing arrangements), though we recommend checking your child's plan to understand what support is available. Our therapists work collaboratively with families and other professionals to identify meaningful goals that support your child's participation in school, home, and community settings.

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 therapy can support children with autism by addressing practical challenges with daily activities, fine motor skills, and sensory experiences. However, occupational therapists cannot diagnose autism. OTS: AAAS works with children to develop skills and strategies that help them participate more independently in everyday routines at home, school, and in the community.
How do I access services at OTS: AAAS, and will NDIS cover the cost?
We recommend contacting OTS: AAAS directly to discuss your child's needs and how we might support them. Many families use NDIS funding (2025-26 pricing) to access occupational therapy services. We suggest reviewing your child's NDIS plan or speaking with your local area coordinator to understand what therapy supports are available to you.
What should I expect during early intervention or fine motor sessions?
Sessions are tailored to your child's individual needs and interests. Early intervention might include play-based activities, routine support, and sensory strategies. Fine motor sessions typically involve hands-on activities designed to build skills like pencil grip, cutting, and hand strength. Our therapists will communicate regularly with you about progress and strategies to use at home.
