ADHD Support at Squish Kids – Cleveland — Cleveland, QLD

Children with ADHD often experience challenges with sensory processing, fine motor control, and attention regulation—areas where occupational therapy can provide meaningful support. At Squish Kids – Cleveland, our therapists work with these interconnected difficulties through tailored interventions. Sensory processing support helps children develop better body awareness and self-regulation; for example, activities using weighted blankets, resistance exercises, or controlled sensory input can help calm an overactive nervous system and improve focus during learning tasks. Fine motor work addresses the coordination and precision needed for writing and self-care, with activities like threading, playdough manipulation, and grip-strengthening exercises building the foundational skills that support classroom participation. Handwriting intervention combines both elements, using multi-sensory techniques and postural strategies to make writing less effortful and more automatic. Squish Kids – Cleveland is NDIS registered, meaning many families can access these services through their child's NDIS plan (2025-26 funding year). Our therapists collaborate with families and schools to embed strategies into everyday routines, supporting your child's attention, confidence, and participation at home and in the classroom.
