What Is Pediatric Occupational Therapy?
Pediatric occupational therapy (OT) helps children develop the skills needed to participate in daily activities. These are their “occupations,” or the activities that occupy their time. This includes daily tasks like learning, self-care, and social interactions. For children, these skills are the foundation for success at home, in school, and beyond.
OT is not about teaching one isolated skill. It looks at how a child’s motor abilities, sensory processing, attention, and emotional regulation all work together to support independence. Therapy is always individualized, based on your child’s strengths, challenges, routines, and environment.

- Sensory sensitivities or sensory seeking behaviors

- Motor planning or coordination
- Attention, organization, or executive functioning
