​​Why Families Choose Kids World Therapy

​

Experienced Paediatric Occupational Therapists

 

Our therapists have extensive experience supporting children and young people with a wide range of developmental, sensory, emotional regulation and participation needs. We are committed to ongoing professional learning and providing evidence-informed, individualised therapy.

​

Understanding the "Why" Behind Behaviour

 

Every behaviour has a reason. We look beyond what a child is doing to understand why it is happening. By considering each child's sensory processing, emotional regulation, relationships, communication, environment and developmental profile, we develop meaningful, individualised therapy that supports participation in everyday life.

​

Purpose-designed Therapy Clinics

 

Our Lane Cove clinics are specifically designed for paediatric occupational therapy and include specialised equipment that supports sensory processing, emotional regulation, motor development and participation. Many therapeutic activities simply cannot be replicated in a home or classroom environment.

​

Working Together

 

We believe children achieve the best outcomes when everyone works together. Our therapists collaborate closely with parents, schools, preschools, medical professionals and other members of a child's support team to help children transfer skills into everyday life.

​

Supporting the Whole Family

 

Therapy extends beyond the clinic. We provide practical strategies, parent coaching, workshops and resources to help families feel confident supporting their child's development at home and in the community.

​

Comprehensive Assessment Services

 

In addition to ongoing therapy, we provide comprehensive occupational therapy assessments, Functional Capacity Assessments and consultation services to support intervention planning, educational participation and future funding decisions.

​

​Our team of occupational therapists, trained by Georgina, is dedicated to supporting neurodivergent children and their families. We work with children who experience differences in relating and communicating, including:

​

• Autism

• Sensory processing differences

• Regulatory challenges

• Dyspraxia

• Developmental differences

 

Our approach is based on the DIR®/Floortime model, developed by Dr. Stanley Greenspan, MD, and Dr. Serena Wieder, PhD. This model emphasises the importance of building meaningful relationships and supporting each child’s individual development. We also have specialised knowledge in understanding how sensory processing and motor development can impact a child’s ability to engage with the world in their unique way.

​

Our therapists continually expand their knowledge to offer the most up-to-date, affirming care. This includes training in Gestalt language acquisition, the Safe and Sound Protocol, interoception, and the Social Stencil, ensuring that our practice reflects the latest research in child development.

​

We aim to create a safe and supportive environment that celebrates each child’s strengths and fosters their sense of agency. Our therapists focus on empowering children and families to navigate challenges while honouring their authentic selves.
