Occupational Therapy (OT) helps children develop the skills they need for everyday life— like playing, learning, managing emotions, and doing daily tasks such as dressing or eating. We work with what matters most to your child and whānau, using a strengths-based, relationship-focused approach.

No. A diagnosis isn’t required to access our services. If your child is struggling with regulation, sensory needs, daily routines, or anything else that’s getting in the way of participation and confidence, we’re here to help.

We work with pēpi (infants), tamariki (children), and rangatahi (teens). Our approach is always adapted to the developmental stage and unique needs of each young person.

We work closely with parents and caregivers throughout the process. You know your child best. Our role is to support you with practical tools, emotional support, and strategies that work at home, at school, and in daily life.

We support children with sensory processing differences, emotional regulation, anxiety, attention and focus, motor skills, social communication, daily living tasks, and complex profiles including PDA (Pathological Demand Avoidance).

We offer sessions at our clinics in Kāpiti and Wellington, and also provide home, school, and online options depending on what works best for your whānau.

Yes. While waiting for ongoing therapy, you can book a parent consult with one of our Occupational Therapists. These one-off sessions provide guidance, strategies, and support tailored to your child, so you can feel more confident and informed while you wait.
