Services Tightrope Learning offers for sensory processing
Tightrope Learning supports children with sensory processing difficulties through two key service areas. Sensory processing therapy helps children understand and respond to sensory information—such as touch, sound, movement and visual input—in ways that feel manageable. This might include activities like using a sensory swing to help regulate balance and coordination, or working with weighted blankets and pressure tools to calm an overactive nervous system. Fine motor support complements this by addressing the small muscle control needed for everyday tasks like writing, fastening buttons and using cutlery, which can be affected when sensory systems are overwhelmed. At Tightrope Learning, occupational therapists design individualised programs combining both areas—for example, hand-strengthening exercises paired with calming sensory input, or fine-motor activities embedded within a structured sensory routine. Many families access these services through NDIS funding (2025–26 pricing applies where registered), though it's worth confirming the clinic's current registration status. An occupational therapist cannot diagnose sensory processing disorder, autism or ADHD; however, they can identify sensory challenges and help your child develop practical strategies to engage more confidently at home, school and in the community.

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
How do I know if my child has sensory processing difficulties?
Children with sensory sensitivities might avoid certain textures, sounds or movements; seek intense sensory input; struggle with transitions; or have difficulty with self-care routines. An occupational therapist can observe your child's responses and discuss concerns with you, though they cannot diagnose a condition. If you're concerned, speak with your GP or paediatrician for guidance.
Can Tightrope Learning help my child through the NDIS?
Tightrope Learning may support children with NDIS plans, depending on the clinic's registration status and your child's plan approval. Contact the clinic directly to confirm their current NDIS registration and discuss how funding might apply to sensory processing and fine motor services for your child.
What should I expect in a sensory processing session?
Sessions typically involve play-based activities tailored to your child's needs—such as movement activities, tactile exploration, or fine-motor tasks—combined with strategies you can use at home. The therapist will work with you to understand your child's sensory preferences and create a plan that fits your family's routines.
