To understand Occupational Therapy, we first need to explore what the word “occupation” means. In this context, occupations are also known as daily activities that an individual wants or needs to do. Occupations can also be defined as anything that ‘occupies time’.
Using this definition, children have many different occupations! Children play, learn, eat, look after themselves (getting dressed, using the toilet, tying their shoelaces), they play with others and have their own individual interests to explore.
A Paediatric Occupational Therapist (OT) supports your child to participate in daily activities that are meaningful to them by addressing barriers to participation. This may include individual sessions to learn more about their ‘super powers’ and how to overcome and ‘work with’ their challenges, parent coaching to empower you with tools, advocacy in the community, group programs to facilitate building connection and community.
