Our Services

Occupational therapy (OT) helps children build the skills they need for everyday life. For young children, “occupations” include playing, learning, self-care, and interacting with others. Pediatric OT uses play-based strategies to support:

  • Fine motor skills (grasping, coloring, feeding)

  • Gross motor coordination (balance, climbing, ball skills)

  • Sensory processing (responding to sound, touch, movement)

  • Emotional regulation and coping skills

  • Independence in daily routines (dressing, toileting, mealtime)
