Children need OT too! Children are often not suffering from an “injury”, rather, they are working to develop skills that didn’t come so easily. Perhaps your child is struggling to feed himself, manage buttons, or put on his socks and shoes. Or, perhaps your child gets upset easily, struggles to transition from one activity to another, or has difficulty paying attention to non-screen activities.
Some common developmental conditions that children seeking OT often have include down syndrome, autism, ADHD, sensory processing disorder, cerebral palsy, spina bifida, or motor coordination delays.
Our team of occupational therapists can evaluate your child to determine some of the underlying factors that may be contributing to these delays. They will provide interventions to help your child achieve these ‘little’ skills that matter so much.
