Children develop everyday skills at different rates. Some children may have difficulty with fine motor activities, sensory experiences, self-care routines, coordination, or completing age-appropriate daily tasks.
Pediatric occupational therapy helps children strengthen the skills they need to participate more independently and confidently in everyday activities.
At Ascend, occupational therapy is individualized around each child’s strengths, needs, routines, and developmental goals.
