Treatment List
Evaluation with Comprehensive Written Report
Our initial two-hour session involves observing and assessing interactions between your child and their caregivers, as well as evaluating sensory modulation and regulation, discrimination, and motor planning skills.
​
You will receive a verbal review during the evaluation, followed by an extensive written report that provides a detailed analysis and recommendations for your child’s ongoing support and development.
Individual Treatment Sessions
Weekly one-hour individual sessions are customised to meet your child’s unique developmental needs, with 50 minutes of direct therapy and 10 minutes dedicated to planning, equipment setup, and cleaning. Parents play an active role during these sessions, allowing us to guide and support you in implementing strategies at home to enhance your child’s progress.
Social Setting Treatment Sessions
These 50-minute peer sessions are tailored to your child’s unique developmental needs, with 50 minutes of direct therapy and 10 minutes dedicated to planning, equipment setup, and cleaning. Each session is thoughtfully matched with either typically developing peers or peers with similar strengths and challenges, providing the right level of social interaction and support.
School
Holiday
Programs
During most school holidays, Kids World offers three specialised programs: Social and Communication Program, Mobility Development Program, and Self-Management Program.
​
These programs consist of 2-hour intensive sessions held over 4 consecutive days. Children are grouped into sessions based on the suitability of peers of similar age and ability, ensuring a supportive and effective learning environment.
Training
Workshops
Georgina Ahrens conducts parent training sessions throughout the year, where groups of parents come together to learn about the DIR®/Floortime Model. These workshops cover both the theory and practical application of the model, including how to understand and analyse both your child’s and your own Individual Profiles.
​
The goal is to equip parents with the knowledge and skills needed to implement a comprehensive and effective program at home.
