Assessment and Reports
Comprehensive Assessments for Tailored Support
We offer a range of formal and informal assessments to build a comprehensive understanding of your child’s strengths, differences, and areas of support. These assessments help guide therapy planning, inform funding applications, and support collaboration across home, school, and community settings.
Individualised Assessments Backed by Expertise
Our therapist will use a combination of standardised tools, clinical observations, and input from families, educators, and other professionals to ensure the assessment is relevant and individualised.
We use strengths–based, neurodiversity–affirming lenses throughout the assessment process. Our aim is to ensure that supports are practical, relevant, and reflective of your child’s real–world experiences.
Assessment Types May Include:
Some assessment services require more detailed clinical reasoning and observation over time. As such, they are typically available to families who have completed an intake session and are continuing with ongoing therapy.
Individualised Occupational Therapy Support Plans
Outlining goals and intervention plans
Educational Observations
Observation and assessment of your child within their kindergarten, daycare, or school setting to better understand how they participate and engage in their learning environment. These observations help us identify both supports and barriers in the environment and allow us to provide practical recommendations to enhance your child’s participation and learning.
Handwriting Assessments
In-depth review of handwriting skills, including pencil grip, letter formation, spacing, and writing endurance
Funding Application Assessments
Reports and documentation to support funding pathways such as the Disability Inclusion Profile (DIP), Kindergarten Inclusion Support (KIS), and Vineland Adaptive Behaviour Scales.

NDIS Review/progress Reports
Provides the NDIS with a clear summary of your child’s progress, highlighting growth and ongoing needs in relation to their goals.
Sensory Profile Assessments
To identify your child’s sensory preferences and how they respond to different types of input (such as sound, touch, or movement).
The Roll Evaluation of Activities of life Assessment
Assessment of daily living skills with supporting documentation (e.g., letters for support worker funding or functional capacity evidence).
Fine and Gross Motor Assessments
Evaluation of strength, coordination, balance, and fine motor skills used for everyday tasks such as handwriting, dressing, and play.
Visual-Motor Assessments
Assessment of how your child processes and coordinates visual information with motor output, important for tasks like drawing or catching a ball.
Disclaimer: Strength-based report
Our reports are written with care and respect. We aim to show a full picture of your child, their strengths, their needs, and what supports will help them thrive.
We use positive, strengths-based language. Instead of saying things like “struggled” or “failed,” we say “benefits from support” or “is still developing this skill.
We want you to feel proud and understood when you read your child’s report.
