What is Pediatric Occupational Therapy?
Occupational therapy is concerned with promoting independence in activities of everyday life – or ‘occupations.’ Children’s occupations include: reaching developmental milestones, play, self care (eating, sleeping, dressing, grooming, bathing), academic tasks (handwriting, fine motor skills, attention/focus), and socializing. Pediatric occupational therapy allows children to function at their optimal level of independence through strengthening the development of fine motor skills, sensory-motor skills, visual perceptual, cognitive and visual motor skills that children need to function and socialize.

Tasks and Skills Advance Therapy Solutions Focus on
Addressing Sensory Processing disorders (tactile, visual, auditory, vestibular and proprioception)
Improving fine motor skills so they can grasp and release toys and develop good handwriting skills
Addressing hand-eye coordination to improve kids’ play and school skills (hitting a target, batting a ball, copying from a blackboard, etc.)
learning basic tasks (such as bathing, getting dressed, brushing their teeth, and feeding themselves)
How Can a Pediatric Occupational Therapist Help?
Pediatric occupational therapists evaluate a child’s strengths, as well as difficulties, in critical developmental areas via clinical observation, caregiver reports, and standardized tests. They evaluate the environment, sensory processing, muscle functioning, positioning, coordination, and other areas when determining the cause of decreased skill. Once the cause is identified, the therapist works on these underlying areas of need so that they improve the foundational skills, not just a “splinter” skill or a skill that is beneficial at this time and may not be beneficial in the future. Based on the outcomes, the OT designs interventions that promote the healthy development of skills needed for success with daily activities (occupations).

Why Occupational Therapy?
Having a solid foundation of skills allows for the development of self-confidence. Developing a skill and using it successfully encourages children to continually try new activities that expand their skills and build success. Being successful is the foundation for continued learning. Through meaningful activities and play, OT facilitates the development of age-appropriate skills and instils this confidence in children to help them play, learn, and grow. When skill and strength cannot be developed or improved, occupational therapy offers creative solutions and alternatives for carrying out daily activities.
