How We Can Support

At OT-123, we help children and young people become more independent, confident and capable in their everyday activities—at home, at school and in the community.

What Is Occupational Therapy (OT)?

Occupational Therapy supports children who find daily tasks difficult — whether it’s getting dressed, brushing teeth, using cutlery, handwriting or focusing at school.

OT helps children develop the skills they need for everyday life, through play-based, hands-on therapy that’s tailored to their individual needs.

Everyday Activities We Support

We help children build skills for activities like:

• Dressing and personal care

• Using cutlery and feeding

• Handwriting and using scissors

• Playing with others and making friends

• Managing routines at school and home

• And all other activities they want or need to engage in

What Can Get in the Way?

Children may face challenges that affect how they participate in daily life. These may include:

• Sensory sensitivities

• Motor coordination difficulties

• Developmental delays

• Learning or cognitive challenges

• Environmental or social factors

What If These Challenges Aren’t Addressed?

Struggling with everyday tasks can lead to:

• Difficulties at school

• Social difficulties

• Increased need for adult support

• Emotional or behavioural challenges

• Reduced confidence and independence

How OT-123 Can Help

We work with your child to identify barriers and build skills in a way that’s fun, supportive, effective and personalised to their individual skills and needs.

We help your child to:

• Build strength, focus, and coordination

• Develop self-care and life skills

• Increase confidence and social success

• Thrive in home, school and social settings

Partnering with Parents

We believe in working with families, not just with children. Parents are the experts of their own child and OT-123 can guide you on how to support your child's progress at home.
