Occupational Therapy (OT) is an evidence-based allied health profession that helps individuals develop the skills they need to participate in everyday activities with confidence and independence. Occupational therapists work with people of all ages to improve their ability to engage in essential life tasks, such as self-care, learning, play, and social interactions. OT is particularly beneficial for children who experience challenges with fine and gross motor skills, sensory processing, emotional regulation, or social participation. Using structured, engaging, and goal-oriented interventions, occupational therapy supports children in reaching their full potential across various domains of daily life.

​

At Mini Minds, our occupational therapy services focus on helping children develop practical skills that enhance their ability to engage in daily activities with greater ease. Our OTs have specialist skills and training in sensory processing and work closely with children, families, and educators to provide tailored strategies that support motor coordination, self-regulation, and functional independence. We aim to empower young people to understand and embrace their unique selves, equipping them with effective strategies to manage distress, build resilience, and confidently navigate the world around them.

​

We ensure that the management strategies and interventions introduced within OT sessions are practical, repeatable, and realistic for implementation in everyday life. Our approach prioritises strategies that can be successfully carried over into home, school, and community settings, ensuring that children receive consistent and functional support across all environments. By working collaboratively with families and educators, we help create sustainable routines and interventions that truly benefit the child in their daily life.

​

Our OT sessions are interactive and engaging, incorporating play-based techniques, movement activities, and structured interventions to support development. Families can expect a warm, supportive, and collaborative approach, where therapy is designed to be fun, engaging, and directly relevant to a child's daily experiences. Whether through one-on-one sessions or group-based interventions, our occupational therapist helps children build resilience, confidence, and essential life skills that extend beyond the clinic and into their everyday environments.​​
