Autism Support at The Child Development Hub — North Lakes, QLD

Children with autism spectrum disorder often experience differences in sensory processing and fine motor development, which can impact daily activities like self-care, learning, and play. The Child Development Hub offers occupational therapy services addressing both areas to support your child's independence and participation. Our sensory processing support helps children regulate their responses to sights, sounds, textures, and movement through tailored activities. For example, we use sensory swings and weighted equipment to help children who seek or avoid sensory input, whilst structured activities like threading beads or playdough work develop fine motor skills essential for writing and self-feeding. The Child Development Hub's therapists create individualised programs that can be funded through NDIS support coordination in the 2025-26 funding year, helping families access evidence-based interventions. By addressing these foundational skills, we support children to engage more confidently in school, home, and community settings. Each child's program is tailored to their unique profile and goals.
