Youth Living Skills in Across NSW lists services that overlap with paediatric occupational therapy for early intervention.
Services Youth Living Skills offers for early intervention
Early childhood is a critical period for developing sensory processing skills, which form the foundation for learning, play, and social interaction. Youth Living Skills supports children with sensory processing difficulties through targeted occupational therapy interventions designed to help them interpret and respond to sensory information more effectively. Sensory processing work at Youth Living Skills might include activities such as using sensory swings or body socks to provide calming input, engaging in fine-motor activities like threading beads or playdough manipulation to build hand strength and coordination, and structured play experiences that gradually introduce different textures, sounds, and movements. These interventions help children develop better tolerance for everyday sensory experiences, improve focus during learning activities, and build confidence in new environments. It's important to note that occupational therapists cannot diagnose conditions like autism or sensory processing disorder; however, they can identify sensory sensitivities and support their management. Many families access Youth Living Skills services through NDIS funding (2025–26 pricing arrangements), which can cover occupational therapy for eligible children. Your occupational therapist will work with you to understand your child's individual sensory profile and develop strategies tailored to their needs.

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 has sensory processing difficulties?
Children with sensory processing challenges may avoid certain textures or sounds, seek out intense sensory experiences, struggle with transitions, or have difficulty concentrating. Common signs include covering ears in noisy places, refusing certain foods, or becoming overwhelmed in busy environments. An occupational therapist at Youth Living Skills can assess your child's responses and help identify patterns, though they cannot diagnose conditions like autism or SPD.
Can Youth Living Skills help if my child is on the NDIS?
Youth Living Skills' NDIS registration status is not yet confirmed. We recommend contacting the clinic directly to discuss your child's NDIS plan and whether they can provide services under your funding. If registered, occupational therapy for sensory processing would typically be covered under your child's support budget for 2025–26.
What should I expect during a sensory processing session?
Sessions typically involve play-based activities tailored to your child's interests and sensory needs. Your occupational therapist might use swings, weighted tools, textured materials, or movement activities. You'll receive strategies to use at home, and the therapist will regularly review progress and adjust the approach based on your child's development and responses.
