What Moment helps with

Paediatric Occupational Therapy

A therapy that helps children and adults develop the everyday skills needed for daily life — from dressing, writing and play to sensory processing and school participation. Occupational therapists assess what is getting in the way and design practical strategies to build independence and confidence.

Sensory Processing Therapy

Support for children to regulate and interpret sensory information appropriately, contributing to improved overall wellbeing.

Emotional Regulation

Therapy and skill-building that helps children and adults recognise, understand and manage their emotions in healthy ways. Strategies are embedded into daily routines and environments, helping individuals respond to challenges without becoming overwhelmed.

Play Skills and Engagement

Therapy to enhance play skills, promoting social interaction, creativity, and problem-solving.

Behaviour Management

Structured therapy that uses evidence-based strategies to reduce challenging behaviours and teach new, more helpful ones. Therapists identify the purpose a behaviour serves and design targeted plans to address it across home, school and community settings.

School Readiness Skills

Development of essential skills such as fine motor coordination, attention, and social communication to prepare children for school.

Motor Skills

Assessment and therapy targeting the development of physical movement skills — gross motor skills (running, jumping, balance) and fine motor skills (handwriting, cutting, fastening). Delivered by occupational therapists or physiotherapists to help children meet developmental milestones.

Attention and Concentration

Therapy sessions focused on improving attention and concentration to help children succeed in academic and daily tasks.

Social Communication

Therapy and support to help children build understanding and use of language — including vocabulary, grammar, listening comprehension and conversational skills. Delivered by a speech pathologist, it addresses both what a child understands and how they express themselves.

Fussy Eating and Feeding Challenges

Therapy addressing challenges related to fussy eating and feeding to create positive mealtime experiences.

Matrescence Support

Online program guiding women through the transition into and through motherhood with education, support, and space to reconnect with yourself.

Supervision, Training and Mentorship for OTs

Professional development services for occupational therapists and clinics.

Our approach

At Moment by Moment, therapy flows from the belief that families and children deserve to feel supported, educated and empowered. Sessions are designed to be enjoyable and impactful, incorporating meaningful activities that help children build confidence, independence and everyday life skills. The therapy approach is holistic and child-centred, working across areas like sensory processing, emotional regulation, motor skills, attention and play engagement. Sessions can take place at home, outdoors, school, or online, with the understanding that transformative therapy can happen in any setting. Throughout the journey, the team provides continuous support and celebration of progress, both big and small.

Working with families

Family involvement is central to how Moment by Moment operates. The team prioritises regular check-ins and open communication with you to discuss your child's development and adjust the therapy plan as needed, with your feedback and insights treated as vital to refining the approach. You are an integral contributor in the personalised therapy planning process and are equipped with tools, resources and support to continue fostering your child's independence beyond the therapy session. The team recognises that what families do outside of therapy can make a huge difference in achieving great results. Therapists provide regular session updates and work collaboratively with you and your child's wider support team to ensure the therapy journey remains effective and connected to your family's goals.

Meet the team

The team at Moment by Moment is led by founder Sam O'Donovan, an occupational therapist described by families as expert, experienced, well-prepared and continually up to date with new therapies. The team also includes therapists such as Pippa, Amelia and Cas, who are noted by families for their skill in connecting with children, creative approaches, tuned-in attention, and ability to establish strong therapeutic relationships. Team members are occupational therapists who demonstrate expertise in child development, sensory processing, and family-centred care. Therapists are described as considerate, respectful, devoted to their work, and committed to being genuine supporters of families throughout their child's progress journey.

Your first visit

The first appointment begins with a comprehensive assessment to understand where your child is at developmentally and personally. This includes in-depth discussion with both you and your child to build a deep understanding of their world and unique personality. Following the assessment, the team collaborates closely with you to develop a personalised therapy plan where your input is an integral part of the process. This collaborative approach ensures the plan is tailored to your child's needs and your family's goals. The team then guides you through engaging therapy sessions and regular progress reviews to keep you informed and involved every step of the way.
