POV: You’re a pediatric therapist, and no two days look exactly the same.

Our “to-do list” might include helping a child find a new way to communicate, turning a therapy goal into a game, practicing a skill in 47 different ways, celebrating a tiny breakthrough, and finding ways for families to carry those skills into everyday life.

And yes, cleaning up approximately 9,000 therapy toys is probably on there, too.

Behind every activity is a purpose: helping children build meaningful skills, gain confidence, and participate more independently at home, at school, and in their communities.

We’re grateful for the therapists who bring creativity, patience, and a whole lot of fun to this work every day.

Proficio Therapy provides pediatric occupational therapy, speech therapy, and ABA services tailored to each child and family.

Our South Jordan, Utah location is accepting new patients. Contact the Proficio Therapy team to learn more about our services or schedule an appointment for your child.

“Why can’t my child just sit still?”

It’s a question many parents find themselves asking, especially when a child struggles to stay seated during meals, schoolwork, story time, or other everyday activities.

But difficulty sitting still doesn’t always mean a child is being defiant, inattentive, or simply “not trying.” Movement can be an important part of how children regulate their bodies and stay engaged.

For some children, movement helps them maintain attention. Others may be seeking sensory input, having difficulty with body awareness, or still developing the skills needed to regulate their energy and attention. Developmental differences can also affect how long a child can comfortably remain still or focused on one activity.

Instead of asking only, “How do I get my child to sit still?” it can be helpful to ask, “What does my child need in order to participate successfully?”

Sometimes that might mean a movement break, a different seating option, opportunities for hands-on learning, or support developing regulation and attention skills.

If your child’s difficulty sitting still is interfering with school, routines, relationships, or everyday activities, a pediatric occupational therapy evaluation can help you better understand what may be contributing to the challenge.

Your child isn’t necessarily giving you a hard time. They may be having a hard time, and there may be a reason worth exploring.

We’ve been asked a lot lately if screen time causes speech delays?

It’s a question many parents have asked themselves: Is my child’s screen time affecting their speech and language development?

The answer isn’t quite as simple as yes or no. Screen time itself isn’t necessarily the cause of a speech delay. However, how much screen time a child has, and what it may be replacing, can matter. Young children develop communication skills through interaction: talking with caregivers, playing, taking turns, hearing language, asking questions, and responding to others.

For example, watching a show may expose a child to words, but a conversation with a parent gives them opportunities to practice using those words, responding, communicating wants and needs, and engaging in back-and-forth interaction.

This doesn’t mean parents need to feel guilty about screen time. Screens are part of everyday life, and finding a balance is often more realistic than trying to eliminate them completely.

If you’re concerned about your child’s speech or language development, you don’t have to wait and see if they simply “catch up.” A speech-language evaluation can help you understand your child’s individual strengths and needs.

Our South Jordan, Utah location is now accepting new clients! If you have questions about your child’s speech, language, or communication development, schedule an appointment with the Proficio Therapy team to learn more and find out whether Proficio is the right fit for your family.

Parents are often surprised to realize that handwriting has a lot to do with occupational therapy.

Handwriting is a complex skill that requires much more than knowing how to form letters. Children use fine motor skills, hand strength, visual-motor coordination, motor planning, attention, posture, and coordination to write comfortably and efficiently.

Occupational therapy can help children develop the underlying skills that make handwriting easier. An OT may work on pencil grasp, hand strength, letter formation, spacing, writing speed, posture, and the coordination needed to get ideas from the brain onto the page.

If your child avoids writing, tires quickly, struggles to keep up with classmates, has difficulty forming letters, or becomes frustrated during handwriting activities, it may be worth looking beyond the pencil and paper to understand what skills are making the task challenging.

Handwriting difficulties aren’t always about a child “not trying.” Sometimes, children need support developing the skills behind the task.

Our South Jordan, Utah location is now accepting new clients! If you’re wondering whether could help your child, schedule an appointment with the Proficio Therapy team.

We’re happy to talk with you about your concerns, answer your questions, and help you determine whether Proficio Therapy is the right fit for your family.

Many parents come into Proficio asking how they can know which type of therapy is best for their child.

Maybe your child is having trouble communicating. Maybe getting dressed, eating, or getting ready for school has become a daily challenge. Or perhaps you’ve noticed struggles with sensory experiences, transitions, social interactions, or learning new skills.

The good news is that you don’t have to figure it out on your own.
Speech therapy can support communication, language, speech sounds, social communication, AAC, and certain feeding and swallowing concerns.

Occupational therapy can help with fine motor skills, handwriting, sensory processing, coordination, feeding, self-care, play, school participation, and everyday independence.

ABA therapy can support individualized goals related to communication, social skills, learning, routines, transitions, independence, safety, and behaviors that may interfere with participation.

And sometimes, children benefit from more than one type of therapy. Children are complex, and their needs don’t always fit neatly into one category. When multiple services are appropriate, collaboration between providers can help everyone work toward meaningful goals.

If you’re a parent considering ABA therapy, you may have questions like:

What exactly does ABA therapy look like?
How do I know if ABA is right for my child?
Will therapy focus on skills that are meaningful to my child and our family?
How involved will I be in the process?
And perhaps most importantly: Will my child be seen, heard, and supported as an individual?

ABA can be used to support children in developing meaningful skills related to communication, social interaction, daily routines, independence, learning, and more. A thoughtful, individualized approach starts by understanding the child, not just focusing on a diagnosis or a list of behaviors.

Every child and family has different goals, which is why therapy should be tailored to the skills that matter most in everyday life.

We’re excited to share that our South Jordan, Utah location is now accepting new clients. If you’ve been wondering whether ABA may be a good fit for your child, we’re here to help you learn more and explore your options.

The weekend is a chance to slow down, spend time together, and enjoy being a kid. But did you know that some of the simplest weekend activities can also support your child’s development?

Whether you’re building a fort, playing at the park, helping make breakfast, running errands, or spending a quiet afternoon at home, your child is practicing skills along the way.

Weekend play can help children:

Build communication skills through conversation and pretend play
Strengthen fine and gross motor skills through crafts, playgrounds, and active play
Practice problem-solving and flexibility
Develop social skills through games and interactions with others
Build independence by helping with everyday tasks
Explore sensory experiences through movement, textures, sounds, and new environments

You don’t need to turn the weekend into therapy. Follow your child’s interests, make time for connection, and let them explore. Some of the best learning happens naturally when children are having fun.

And remember: play doesn’t have to be perfect to be meaningful.

If you have questions about your child’s development or are wondering whether occupational therapy, speech therapy, or ABA could benefit your child, our team is here to help.

Proficio is currently accepting new clients in South Jordan, Utah. Contact us to schedule an appointment and see if we’re the right fit for your family.

“My child understands everything. Why aren’t they talking?”

It’s a common question when a child seems to understand what’s happening around them but isn’t using as many words as expected.

Understanding language and expressing language are two different skills. A child may follow directions, recognize familiar people and objects, and know what they want, while still having difficulty finding the words to communicate.

You may notice your child:

Uses gestures instead of words
Has a smaller vocabulary than expected for their age
Gets frustrated when they can’t communicate
Repeats words or phrases but struggles with conversation
Has trouble answering questions
Relies heavily on pointing or other nonverbal communication

These differences don’t automatically mean your child needs speech therapy. Every child develops differently, but if you’re concerned, you don’t have to wait and wonder.

A speech-language pathologist can evaluate your child’s communication skills and determine whether support could be helpful. Speech therapy can address much more than pronunciation, including understanding, expressive language, social communication, and functional communication.

If you’ve been wondering whether your child’s communication is on track, it’s okay to ask.

Proficio provides individualized speech therapy to help children build communication skills for everyday life.

Occupational therapy, or OT, can support children who are having difficulty with everyday activities that are important for learning, playing, participating, and becoming more independent.

But how do you know when your child might benefit from occupational therapy?

You may want to consider talking with an OT if your child regularly has difficulty with things like:

Getting dressed, using utensils, brushing their teeth, or other daily routines
Holding a pencil, using scissors, coloring, or other fine motor activities
Handwriting or other school-related tasks
Coordinating movements, balance, or motor skills
Managing sensory experiences such as sounds, textures, movement, or busy environments
Transitioning between activities or regulating their emotions
Participating in play or age-appropriate activities
Developing independence with everyday tasks

It’s also important to remember that needing support with a particular skill doesn’t mean something is “wrong” with your child. Children develop at different rates, and OT can provide individualized strategies to help them build skills and participate more confidently in the activities that matter to them.

At Proficio, our occupational therapists work with children to understand their individual strengths, challenges, and goals. Therapy may focus on helping children develop the skills they need to participate more successfully at home, at school, and in their communities.

If you’ve been wondering whether OT could benefit your child, you don’t have to figure it out on your own.

We’re currently accepting new clients in South Jordan, Utah. Contact our team to schedule an appointment and see if Proficio is the right fit for your child and family.
