ABOUT
What is Paediatric Occupational Therapy?
Paediatric occupational therapists work with children and young people with motor, sensory or cognitive difficulties, to help them maximise and maintain their independence in meaningful activities of daily living (ADL).
For children and young people, their activities of daily living focus on Self-Care, School, and Play/Leisure. Occupational Therapy intervention seeks to help a child gain functional skills in these areas which can improve a child’s participation and confidence, access to learning opportunities and social relationships.
