Services North West Therapy Services offers for early intervention
North West Therapy Services lists sensory processing support as a service that may assist children with early childhood development. Sensory processing difficulties can affect how young children respond to everyday experiences like touch, sound, movement, and visual input, potentially impacting their ability to engage with play, learning, and daily routines.
According to its listing, the clinic addresses sensory processing through occupational therapy approaches. Typical activities in this area might include work with sensory equipment such as swings or weighted items to help children develop better awareness of their body in space, or structured play activities designed to help children process different textures and sounds in a controlled way. Fine motor activities—such as threading, play dough manipulation, or mark-making exercises—are also commonly used to support sensory development alongside coordination skills.
Children accessing early intervention support may be eligible for NDIS funding in the 2025-26 financial year, depending on their circumstances and plan approval. Parents considering North West Therapy Services for sensory processing concerns should note that occupational therapists cannot diagnose conditions such as autism or sensory processing disorder; however, they can work with children to build skills and strategies that support participation in everyday activities. The clinic's listing indicates it is registered with the NDIS, though this has not been independently verified by the directory.

About early intervention
Early childhood is a time of rapid development across play, movement, communication, self-care, and social skills. When concerns about a child's early development arise, paediatric occupational therapy is one of the allied health supports often involved.

Common questions
How can occupational therapy help my young child with sensory sensitivities?
Occupational therapists work with children to help them become more comfortable with different sensations and develop better responses to everyday experiences. North West Therapy Services may use play-based activities, movement equipment, and structured exploration to support sensory development. This can help children participate more confidently in routines like mealtimes, getting dressed, or playing with peers.
Is sensory processing support covered by NDIS?
Children with an approved NDIS plan may have funding available for occupational therapy services, including sensory support, depending on their individual plan and goals. North West Therapy Services lists itself as NDIS registered. Parents should check their child's plan details or contact the NDIS directly to confirm what services and funding amounts are available for their circumstances.
Can an occupational therapist diagnose sensory processing disorder or autism?
No, occupational therapists cannot diagnose conditions like sensory processing disorder or autism. However, they can assess how a child responds to sensory experiences and work with them to build skills and strategies that support daily activities. If you have concerns about your child's development, a GP or paediatrician can provide diagnostic assessment.
