Rainbow Therapy 4 Children

Rainbow Therapy 4 Children is based in North Essex and covers Essex, Suffolk, Cambridge, Hertfordshire and North/East London. I can offer Independent Paediatric Occupational Therapy to your child within their own home, school or nursery environment.

I provide an assessment and treatment service based around your child's needs from an initial consultation through to managed care plans and specific treatment programmes. This is achieved using a child centred, play based approach in order to help your child to reach their full potential in all areas of life.

As a Paediatric Occupational Therapist, areas I can help with are;

Poor fine motor skills including difficulty with using two hands together, pencil skills and handwriting

Poor fine and gross motor coordination and motor planning skills including the difficulties commonly found in Dyspraxia or Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD)

Slower progress with achieving the physical developmental milestones of early childhood, also known as ��positions for play��, e g rolling, side lying, sitting and kneeling

Slower development of early play skills such as grasping and operating toys

Provision of Sensory Integration advice and treatment

Difficulties with visual perception, particularly when it affects handwriting ability

Difficulties with the development of self help skills including washing, dressing, eating and toileting

Difficulties with concentration, focussing attention and social skills

Assessment for the provision of specialist equipment to support children in activities of daily living

Please contact me via a telephone call or email to discuss how I can help your child to achieve their full potential.
