Step 1
Connect session
In a warmly welcoming space, your child and a parent/carer will have a fun session to connect with your OT. This is where relationships begin, as we build trust and choose the most suitable assessments to guide your child’s journey.
Step 2
Routine's based interview
Through a meaningful conversation between your OT and parent/carer, we explore your child’s daily routines, celebrating their strengths and understanding challenges. This session is all about developing connection and setting the stage for growth. (Child does not attend this session)
Step 3
Child assessment
With your child at the centre of our focus, we conduct a thorough assessment alongside the OT and parent/carer. This step is key as we establish a baseline, set growth-focused goals, and prepare for the journey ahead.
Step 4
Feedback meeting
In this session, your OT will share detailed insights from the assessment, set goals and collaborate with you to create a holistic therapy plan. We’ll also discuss ways to continue supporting your child’s growth at home. (Child does not attend this meeting.)
Step 5
Therapy sessions commence
Your child’s therapy sessions begin guided by the goals we’ve set together. We encourage families to actively participate in sessions, maximizing progress and building connection. To support your child’s growth beyond our sessions, we invite you to engage with our home program technology, helping transfer and reinforce skills into daily life.
