We want every child to love who they are and grow boldly! We work with you to nurture your child's confidence and skills to do the things they find tricky.
Because we are mobile, we can provide therapy in your child's natural environments - home, school-based, kindy and community.
Many children find it hard to take learning from a clinic environment into everyday life. With Dandelion OT, we're right there with them helping them learn in the moment. That way learning is easier and faster.

Mobile Pediatric OT Services - Overview
Paediatric OT Assessment
Based on your goals, we assess your child in fun and engaging ways. This helps us and you better understand what is happening for your child and what they need to thrive.
We provide you with a comprehensive report and individualized occupational therapy plan detailing how we can best support your child to reach their goals. We spend time with you to help you understand the assessment results and to make sure the therapy plan will work for your family.

Parents and carers matter to us. Our services include coaching and support services to help you keep being the parent you want to be. We help you implement OT strategies in everyday life and solve problems as they emerge.
We can help you manage when caring gets overwhelming with practical strategies and connections to networks and other supports.

Adult Chronic Condition Support
We are dedicated to helping people with chronic conditions keep living a life that brings them joy. We help you keep doing the things you need and want to do for yourself, and the things you love to do. Services include:
- functional assessments
- home safety assessments and advice
- advice on basic assistive technology and tools to make life easier
- retraining and adaption strategies to help you do things in ways that work for your body and energy levels.
Self-care
Does your child struggle with self-care tasks like teethbrushing, showering, toileting or dressing? Do they get distressed or have trouble:
- figuring out or remembering what to do?
- getting distracted?
- balancing or using their hands?
We help children develop the confidence and ability to complete self-care tasks independently. Our personalized strategies take the stress out of daily self-care tasks for kids and for parents!
Feeding Therapy
Feeding is a complex skill that involves more than just eating—it includes for example, mental attention, sensory processing, postural stability, motor coordination, emotional regulation, and social interaction. We work closely with you and your child to identify and address their needs so that they become competent, independent eaters who enjoy family mealtimes.
Fine & Gross Motor Skills
Social Skills Therapy
Sensory Therapy
Emotional Regulation Therapy
Do you worry about your child's ability to express how they feel and to manage big emotions? Do they experience frequent meltdowns or tantrums? We can help! We work to understand your child and provide practical strategies to help them manage big emotions so that life is less stressful and more fun.
Handwriting Therapy
Does your child get distressed during handwriting? Do they avoid it? Is their handwriting inconsistent or difficult to read? These challenges can affect your child's confidence and academic performance. We help kids by assessing their specific needs and creating tailored strategies to enhance posture, motor control, hand strength and endurance, and visual-motor coordination. By engaging in fun, targeted activities kids improve their skills, making handwriting a less daunting task.
