Our OT students, Zoe and Brianna, have been busy behind the scenes working on an exciting 'Regulation in Reach' project, focused on supporting therapists, parents, and educators to confidently implement sensory strategies in everyday settings.

You might see them around the clinic and they may come and say hello 👋

We’re so glad to have them with us and look forward to sharing more about what they’ve been creating to support service provision.

If loud places have ever sent your child into meltdown, their brain isn't overreacting.

The vacuum. A balloon popping. A busy café. They're not just hearing these sounds, they're processing them in a way that can feel like an alarm going off.

Sensory differences like this are what our OTs are trained to support. Swipe for strategies that actually help 💛

Hard to wait during games? Your child isn’t being naughty. Their brain just needs a little practice hitting “pause” ⏳

Here are 4 gentle ways to make turn-taking easier:
1️⃣ Ask what they need first: a few minutes to explore or play solo today?
2️⃣ Make the wait visible: sand timers or turn cards help time feel manageable.
3️⃣ Keep their hands busy: fidgets are perfect for those wiggles.
4️⃣ Start small: short games, small waits, big wins for learning patience!

With the right support, kids can learn to wait and play with others. And that’s exactly what we love helping them do in OT🌟

Before kids can manage big feelings, they need two things: awareness of what they're feeling, and real strategies that actually work for them.

That's exactly what our Calm Down Toolbox is all about. 🧰

In OT, we don't tell children how to calm down — we invite them to discover what already helps. Because every strategy is valid, and every child is different.

When kids build their own personalised toolbox, they learn something really powerful. That they are capable of managing big feelings with the right tools around them.

It’s the first day back at school for many children 🎒📚 Big feelings, wriggly bodies, lunchbox challenges, and tricky transitions are all part of this time of year — and that’s completely normal!

If your child needs extra support, our OTs focus on building the everyday skills they need to feel confident, calm, and included at school, while supporting their unique strengths.

We’re now taking school readiness referrals 💛
