Handwriting is an important foundation for your child’s academic success. While all children learn handwriting at school, some children are not able to master the skills the same way other children can. There are many reasons for this including developmental, anatomical or issues related to perceptual skills. The good news is, with the right help your child can make significant improvements.

I am an experienced Occupational Therapist and have been helping children who struggle with handwriting for many years.

It is important that children learn these skills in a familiar environment and that you, as their parents learn the best ways to help them too. That is why Cherrybrook Occupational Therapy offers sessions in your own home. We can apply modifications, adaptations and strategies in your child’s own environment.

In many cases, Medicare or private health insurance can pay for all or most of the session costs.

So your child can get the help they need at home for probably a very limited cost.

If you feel that your child could benefit from help with handwriting or if you have some questions you would like answered, please book a telephone call to discuss your needs.

You can book a free telephone consultation with an OT to discuss your child’s needs.
