Children all develop in their own time and at their own pace.

However, it is common to worry about whether your child is keeping up with developmental milestones.

Or perhaps your child’s developmental screening has flagged some areas that require extra support.

Occupational Therapy Brighton VIC helps you take part in daily activities like self-care, schoolwork, making friends, managing feelings, and play!

Our pediatric occupational therapists Brighton can help with:

  • Gross and fine motor skill development (sitting, crawling, throwing a ball, handwriting)
  • Self-care skills (dressing, eating, toileting)
  • Self-management skills (emotional regulation, sensory processing)
  • Learning skills (attention, concentration, executive functioning)
  • Social skills (engaging with others, play, making friends)
