Our playgroups will not only be FUN but will also provide children with developmentally appropriate and purposeful play activities to build a foundation for reaching all milestones. OT focused programs are a wonderful opportunity for children to explore, experience play and learn how to use their sensory systems. A strong foundation of sensory input builds sensory and motor skills which are the building blocks to support learning, communication and completing daily tasks!

If your child is receiving OT services or in Early Intervention or recently aged out, our playgroups are a wonderful way for your child to practice any skills learned in their sessions into a community setting with the help of a pediatric occupational therapist with over 13 years of experience working in the Early intervention setting.

Is your child prepping for daycare or nursery program? The structure of this playgroup will be a great opportunity for your child to complete activities in a small group setting
