Our approach
Happy Kids Occupational Therapy supports children to participate fully in their daily activities—including play, education, social and leisure pursuits—by building on their individual strengths. The service works particularly with autistic children and young people, addressing sensory processing, social skills, motor development, and anxiety management. A key focus is supporting each child's mental health, confidence and self-esteem as they navigate the difficulties they experience. Sessions are designed with a holistic approach that enables children to access their learning and reach their potential. The team provides both direct therapy with children and coaching support for parents and carers.
