Our services
Assessment:
At Play Partners, we are deeply committed to providing personalised support to every child we work with. We believe that each child is unique and therefore we tailor each assessment to address the specific needs and strengths of the individual child.
To gain a comprehensive understanding of your child and their requirements, we offer a range of assessment options. These assessments can be formal or informal, depending on what best suits your child's situation. Our assessments process also includes clinical observations that may be conducted across settings, such as in clinic, your home, or early childhood setting. By observing your child in different environments, we gather valuable insights into their behaviour and responses in various contexts.
Moreover, we recognise the importance of collaboration with caregivers, teachers, health professionals, and other significant individuals in your child's life. Their input and perspectives are crucial in shaping the assessment process. We actively seek information from these stakeholders to ensure a well-rounded and holistic view of your child's needs.
Our dedication to tailored assessments allows us to create individualised therapy plans that address your child's unique challenges and support their progress in the most effective and meaningful way. At Play Partners, we are here to support your child's growth and development, every step of the way.
Individual Therapy:
In the beginning of your therapy sessions, your occupational therapist will take the time to learn about your child’s interests, strengths and challenges. They will work together with you to identify your priorities and goals for your child. Once the goals have been established your occupational therapist will set up activities designed to engage and motivate your child while simultaneously working the skills necessary to achieve their goals. Therapy sessions will involve caregivers in the process so they can learn how to support their child at home throughout daily routines.
