Early intervention Support at The Base Health — Across NSW
The Base Health in Across NSW lists services that overlap with paediatric occupational therapy for early intervention.
Services The Base Health offers for early intervention
Early childhood development relies on children's ability to process and respond to sensory information from their environment. The Base Health supports this foundational skill through sensory processing services, helping children develop better awareness of their body, improve coordination, and build confidence in everyday activities. A paediatric occupational therapist at The Base Health might use sensory swings or weighted blankets to help children who are under-responsive to sensory input, or provide calming strategies like deep pressure activities for those who are over-responsive. Fine motor activities—such as threading, playdough manipulation, or mark-making exercises—develop the hand strength and control needed for self-care and early learning. The Base Health also incorporates movement-based play to support gross motor development and body awareness. While occupational therapists cannot diagnose conditions like autism or sensory processing disorder, they can identify sensory sensitivities and support development through tailored activities. Families may be eligible for NDIS funding (2025–26) to access these services, depending on their child's needs and plan approval. Early intervention through sensory processing support can help children participate more fully in play, learning, and social experiences.

About early intervention
Early childhood is a time of rapid development across play, movement, communication, self-care, and social skills. When concerns about a child's early development arise, paediatric occupational therapy is one of the allied health supports often involved.

Common questions
How do I know if my child needs sensory processing support?
Children who avoid certain textures, struggle with transitions, seem clumsy, or have difficulty with self-care tasks like dressing may benefit from assessment. The Base Health can observe your child's responses to everyday sensory experiences and discuss your concerns. An occupational therapist cannot diagnose sensory processing disorder, but can identify areas where support may help your child develop.
Can NDIS funding cover services at The Base Health?
NDIS eligibility and funding depend on your child's individual plan and the clinic's registration status. Contact The Base Health directly to discuss your situation and explore funding options available in 2025–26. They can also advise on private payment arrangements if needed.
What should I expect during a sensory processing session?
Sessions typically involve play-based activities tailored to your child's interests and needs. The occupational therapist may use swings, weighted equipment, or fine motor games to support development. You'll receive guidance on activities to continue at home, helping reinforce progress between appointments at The Base Health.
