Sensory processing Support at Sensory Smart — Across NSW
Sensory Smart in Across NSW lists services that overlap with paediatric occupational therapy for sensory processing.
Services Sensory Smart offers for sensory processing
Sensory Smart supports children with sensory processing difficulties through tailored occupational therapy that helps them manage how their bodies respond to everyday sensations. Children with sensory processing challenges may find certain sounds, textures, movements or lights overwhelming, or alternatively seek out intense sensory input. At Sensory Smart, our occupational therapists work with each child to identify their specific sensory needs and build coping strategies. Interventions might include using sensory swings or weighted blankets to help calm an overactive nervous system, practising fine-motor activities like threading or scissor work to improve body awareness, or creating visual schedules to reduce anxiety in unpredictable situations. We also help children gradually become more comfortable with challenging sensations through graded exposure activities. Many families access our services through NDIS funding (2025–26 pricing arrangements), which can cover occupational therapy support. Whether your child is formally diagnosed or you've noticed sensory sensitivities affecting their daily life, Sensory Smart can provide assessment and practical strategies to help them engage more confidently at home, school and in the community. Our therapists work collaboratively with families to embed these strategies into routines.

About sensory processing
Sensory Processing Disorder is the term often used by families and clinicians to describe difficulties with how a child's brain interprets and responds to sensory information. This can affect how a child manages sound, touch, movement, sights, smells, tastes, and body awareness.

Common questions
Can occupational therapy diagnose sensory processing disorder?
No, occupational therapists cannot diagnose sensory processing disorder, autism, ADHD or other conditions. However, our therapists at Sensory Smart can assess how your child responds to sensory input and identify patterns that may be affecting their daily functioning. We then work with you and your child's doctor or paediatrician to support their overall development and wellbeing.
How do I know if my child might benefit from sensory processing support?
Signs include strong reactions to sounds, textures or lights; difficulty with transitions; avoiding certain activities; seeking intense movement or input; or struggling with self-care routines like showering or haircuts. If you've noticed these patterns, contacting Sensory Smart for an initial discussion can help determine whether an assessment would be helpful for your child.
Can we use NDIS funding for therapy at Sensory Smart?
Many families use NDIS funding to access occupational therapy services. We recommend checking your child's NDIS plan to see what supports are allocated and contacting Sensory Smart directly to discuss funding arrangements and how we can work within your plan's 2025–26 pricing structure.
