Behavioural Disorders
Behavioural disorders in children is a term used to describe behaviour that interferes with a child’s daily life. Behaviour refers to how a child conducts themselves. It is their actions, reactions and functioning in response to everyday environments and situations.
Developmental Delays
Developmental Delays in children are defined as a developmental delay when a child has not met a milestone by the expected age and time period. Not meeting developmental milestones at the same rate as other kids isn’t always a reason to worry. Not all children develop skills on a strict timetable.
Sensory Integration Therapy
Sensory Integration Therapy is used to help to restructure a student’s nervous system over time so that they are better able to tolerate sensations and situations they find challenging/distracting and can assist a child to regulate their alertness and increase attention span, limit sensory seeking and sensory avoiding behaviours and handle transitions with less stress;
Speech Therapy
Speech Therapy for Children at Fired Up People aims to help children who have challenges with being understood, speaking to others, using the right type of language in social situations, or who have difficulty with feeding and swallowing.
