ADHD Support at TOTS — Across NSW

Children with ADHD often experience difficulties with attention regulation and sensory processing, which can impact their ability to focus, participate in daily activities, and manage their behaviour. TOTS recognises that sensory processing challenges frequently co-occur with attention difficulties, and our occupational therapists work to address these underlying factors through tailored interventions. Sensory processing support at TOTS may include activities such as using sensory swings or weighted blankets to help calm and organise the nervous system, enabling better focus during learning and play. We also incorporate movement-based activities like obstacle courses or balance work to support body awareness and self-regulation. Fine-motor and coordination exercises can help children develop the foundational skills needed for sustained attention during tasks like writing or drawing. While occupational therapy cannot diagnose ADHD, TOTS can help manage the sensory and motor components that often accompany attention difficulties. Many families access our services through NDIS funding (2025–26 pricing structures apply where eligible), though we welcome enquiries about other funding options. Our team works collaboratively with families and other professionals to support your child's development.
