Paediatric therapy to help children grow, connect and thrive.
Every child develops differently. Sometimes they need a little extra support to develop the skills they need to communicate, learn, move, play and participate in everyday life.
SSRG for Kids provides paediatric Occupational Therapy, Speech Pathology and Physiotherapy for children and families. Our experienced therapists work with children across different stages of development, creating personalised therapy around their individual strengths, needs and goals.
Whether you’re concerned about your child’s speech and communication, physical development, sensory processing, coordination, learning, self-care or everyday participation, we’re here to help you understand what support may be appropriate.
Paediatric therapy designed around your child.
Therapy isn’t about making every child fit the same developmental pathway.
It’s about understanding where your child is now, identifying what matters to them and your family, and helping them develop skills that make a meaningful difference in everyday life. Our paediatric team brings together:
Occupational Therapy
Helping children develop the physical, sensory, emotional and practical skills they need for everyday activities, including self-care, fine motor skills, school readiness, handwriting, sensory processing and independence.
Speech Pathology
Supporting children’s speech, language, communication, social interaction, literacy, feeding and swallowing skills so they can communicate, connect and participate with confidence.
Physiotherapy
Helping children develop movement, strength, balance, coordination, mobility and physical confidence for everyday activities, play, sport and community participation.
How can we help?
Children may benefit from paediatric therapy when they’re experiencing challenges with:
- Communication and language

You don’t need to know exactly which therapy your child needs before you contact us. We can talk through your concerns and help you understand the most appropriate next step.
Therapy that puts your child first!
Every child is unique, which is why our approach starts with understanding the individual child – their strengths, interests, needs and goals.
Child-centred
We tailor therapy to your child’s individual strengths, interests and developmental stage, creating sessions that are engaging, meaningful and motivating.
Goal-focused
Together, we identify goals that are meaningful to your child and family, focusing on outcomes that can make a difference in everyday life.
Collaborative
We work with families, educators, early childhood services, support coordinators and other health professionals to support a coordinated approach.
