Our experienced Occupational Therapists specialise in paediatric wheelchair and stroller prescription, providing comprehensive assessments and recommendations for children with high physical support needs.

In addition to wheelchair and stroller prescription, we also offer ongoing support to ensure that your child's device remains functional and safe. Our team is always available to answer any questions you may have and provide support throughout the life of the device.

🍽️ Building confidence around food, one step at a time 🥦
Does your child struggle with eating, avoid certain foods, or feel overwhelmed at the table?
Our paediatric feeding therapy supports children and families to build comfort and confidence around food in a calm, pressure-free way.
We support children with:
• sensory sensitivities
• mealtime anxiety or distress
• limited food variety or fussy eating
• developmental or neurodivergent-related feeding challenges
Using play-based strategies, sensory exploration and family-centred support, we help make mealtimes more positive for everyone 🌟

The first week of school is done 🎒
And if big emotions are showing up at home, you’re not alone.
Here’s some handy tips for regulation:
• Low demand afternoons where possible
• Outdoor play after school (bike riding, trampolines, playground time)
• Heavy work activities like carrying shopping bags, pushing the wheelie bin, animal walks
• Movement to reset the body - swinging, climbing, dancing, stretching
• Water play in the bath or shower to support calming
• Predictable routines and earlier nights
Big emotions after school are common and often reflect fatigue rather than behaviour.

Resource of the month: Finger Twister 🖐️
Finger twister is a mini version of the classic twister game but instead of feet and hands, it’s all about your fingers!
This fun, fast paced game supports:
🖐️ Fine motor dexterity, specifically finger isolation
🧠 Motor planning and coordination
👀 Visual scanning and attention
🗣️ Following directions and turn taking
At Evolve, we love using finger twister to work on these skills whilst keeping kids engaged and motivated!
