School Readiness Groups: Our Occupational Therapy groups provide children with opportunities to build skills, confidence, and connection through engaging, play-based experiences in a supportive small-group setting. Groups are designed around age and developmental stage and may include activities focused on movement, fine motor development, emotional regulation, social participation, school readiness, executive functioning, and everyday life skills. Group programming offers many benefits for children, including opportunities to practice skills with peers, develop confidence in social and group environments, learn through play and shared experiences, and build strategies that support participation at home, school, and in the community. Activities are thoughtfully planned and adapted by a registered Occupational Therapist to support a wide range of strengths, interests, and learning styles. To help ensure a positive and successful experience for all participants, children should be able to participate in a small group setting with one adult facilitator and approximately three same- age peers. Children who benefit from additional support for communication, engagement, regulation, or participation are warmly welcome to attend with a caregiver who can provide individualized support during sessions as needed. Our goal is to create an inclusive, supportive environment where every child can participate meaningfully and feel successful.
