Empowering Children Through Play.
Holistic, evidence based Occupational Therapy targeting goals specific to you, facilitated through play.
Our Approach
At Play Is The Way, we are dedicated to providing holistic, compassionate, and evidence-based interventions that promote well-being, build resilience, and foster meaningful connections. We take a whole-child approach, recognising that each young person is unique and influenced by a wide range of factors. By addressing the physical, emotional, and social dimensions of their lives, we aim to nurture confidence, self-awareness, and the capacity to navigate life’s challenges. Our mission is to create a safe, inclusive environment where young people feel heard, supported, and empowered to reach their full potential- not just in the present, but for life. In addition to our paediatric focus, we also offer specialised support for mothers during the postpartum period and matrescence, ensuring the wider family system is supported through this significant life transition.
Our Story
We have been providing support within the disability community for over 7 years and providing Occupational Therapy intervention for 5 years. We have experience supporting children diagnosed with genetic conditions, intellectual disabilities, Autism Spectrum Disorder, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, Sensory Processing Challenges, trauma and anxiety. A special interest of ours is also supporting mothers navigating postpartum and matrescence, exploring the physical, emotional and identity changes that arise during the transition into motherhood.
Our Services
Our services include providing 1:1 individualised, evidence based therapy, assessments and reports for children aged 0-18 years of age. We are a community based service, enabling us to collaborate with families, caregivers, educators and other therapists to maximise outcomes. We also offer telehealth services if preferred or if outside of the Adelaide region.
In addition to paediatrics, we also support mothers in their postpartum journey and through matrescence, helping them rebuild confidence, manage daily demands, regulate overwhelm and establish sustainable routines as they transition into motherhood.
