Services OTS: AAAS offers for autism
OTS: AAAS provides occupational therapy support for children with autism spectrum disorder across NSW, focusing on two key areas that can make a meaningful difference in daily life. Early intervention services help younger children develop foundational skills during critical developmental periods, addressing challenges with transitions, social routines, and self-regulation. For example, an occupational therapist might use visual schedules to support predictability during morning routines, or introduce calming sensory strategies like weighted lap pads during structured activities. Fine motor services support children who experience difficulties with handwriting, fastening buttons, using cutlery, or managing school tasks. OTS: AAAS uses graded activities—such as threading, scissor work, and hand-strengthening games—tailored to each child's interests and abilities. These services can be funded through NDIS support plans (2025-26 pricing structures), though families should confirm funding eligibility and the clinic's registration status directly. An occupational therapist cannot diagnose autism but can identify functional difficulties and work collaboratively with families and other professionals to support your child's participation in everyday activities.

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.

If you're seeking diagnosis, your GP can refer you to a paediatrician or developmental specialist. OTS: AAAS works alongside diagnostic professionals to support your child's needs.
How does early intervention help my autistic child?
