How It Supports Children

  • Fine motor skills

    Grasping, reaching, and using hands for play and learning.

  • Daily routines

    Building toward self-care steps that are right for each child.

  • Sensory support

    Helping children engage comfortably with the world around them.

HOW IT FITS INTO PPEC

Occupational therapy connects directly to the activities, meals, and play that fill a child’s day at Children’s Village.

OUR COORDINATED APPROACH

Occupational therapists share strategies with nurses, other therapists, and families so skills can be practiced throughout the day.
