Early intervention & nurturing support to infants, young children & their families.
Fields Occupational Therapy is a mobile paediatric occupational therapy practice servicing Brisbane West, Ipswich & Surrounds, and remotely via Telehealth.
We are passionate about working in partnership with families in an evidence-based way to tailor support to the individual needs of the child and their family. We support babies and young children from diverse backgrounds with varying levels of support needs.
Why Occupational Therapy?
In occupational therapy, occupations refer to the everyday activities that people do as individuals, in families and with communities to occupy time and bring meaning and purpose to life. (WFOT – World Federation of Occupational Therapists)
Occupations are all the activities your child engages in throughout their day - learning how to play with toys, explore their surroundings, interact with others, and develop their independence.
We believe that every child deserves the best possible start in life, and that starts with providing them and their families the tools and resources they need to thrive from an early age.

We come to you!
Fields Occupational Therapy is a mobile practice, meaning therapy sessions occur within the comfort of your own home - your child’s natural environment. This promotes their engagement and maximizes enjoyment from your child during therapy. This also enables us to support daily activities where they occur naturally.
Fields Occupational Therapy is a neurodiversity affirming provider of early intervention support. Therapy is play-based, child-led and is in collaboration with the child’s family.
