Practical skills. Real progress.

Therapists use play, games, and role-playing to teach kids how to handle emotions and behaviors—like puppets for practicing responses or drawing to spot triggers.​

They model calm reactions, reinforce good choices with praise, and help reframe negative thoughts into positive ones. Parents learn home strategies too, like consistent routines.​

KidStart Pediatric Therapy makes it fun and effective for lasting change.

Parenting a child with Neurological or Developmental Challenges is tough. You already know that every day brings unique struggles, and simple functional tasks can feel like massive hurdles. We see you, and we agree—this path requires dedicated support.

That's precisely where Pediatric Occupational Therapy (OT) comes in.

Our role isn't to promise a cure, but to provide practical, skilled intervention designed to improve your child's quality of life right now.

We focus on functional abilities: the everyday skills needed for independence. This includes the focused work of helping their body and brain manage sensory input, refine motor skills for tasks like self-feeding and dressing, and build the endurance needed for successful school days.

We meet your child where they are and apply therapeutic expertise to strengthen their weakest links. It's about providing the tools for them to navigate their world with as much competence and confidence as possible.

If you're looking for focused, practical support to build your child's functional skills, let's talk about the Kidstart approach.

The provincial government and medical system offer funding, especially for children diagnosed with autism.

The amount varies depending on whether the child is under or over 6 years old. This funding can help cover therapy sessions, equipment, consultations, and more. We assist families in applying for this funding to make therapy more accessible.

Everything usually starts with one phone call. We encourage parents to reach out even if they notice small concerns in daily life. That first call helps us understand your child better and figure out the best way to support them.

Don’t wait — contact us today to start the process.

I have a child who is not thriving physically. We identify that maybe he seems to be very nervous around loud noises or public settings and can't quite take care of themselves in terms of self-care.

What would you say would be kind of the roadmap for the parent to do, and then any support, financial or free, services that you know that you can help our audience to tap into? Yeah, so basically what we need to do is to have a first phone interview or phone call with the parent to know and figure out a bit more background information.

So what exactly will parents say? Oh, there’s a physically delayed or something—they’re not able to do particular daily activities, very challenging for them. We want to dive more in detail about how those things actually play out in their daily life. Then we can use our kind of professional judgment, but oh yeah, this might be related to certain area or might be something to do with this particular—there’s a sensory processing, motor skill, or any other thing that related to what OT can do.

Then after that, we might say, okay, we’re gonna do an in-person assessment. During that assessment process, our therapist will conduct some of the assessment activities and then figure out for this particular area might be issue with this and this. Then we can actually say now we can use some kind of therapy activity to address those areas.

I talk to a lot of parents, and they have their day-to-day struggles. But I think many wonder, “When exactly should I seek help?” Sometimes they think, “Oh, this is just kids being kids.” So what would you say to that?

I’ll let Shawn shine here.

I would say the starting point is really important—when do you actually begin to reach out? Well, there are some exercises parents can try early on. But the key is knowing how to talk to a professional. We offer a free consultation, so there’s no financial stress—you don’t have to pay for it.

That consultation helps you gain a better understanding. Sometimes, after the consultation, you might decide there’s no need to continue, and that’s okay. But at least you’ll have more insight about your child. Our professionals can explain what your child might be experiencing and how it might relate to their struggles or behaviors. They’ll provide more details and information, which is always helpful to know.

So, I’d say the starting point is as soon as you notice your child is struggling with something. Parenting can be tough, especially when it takes a lot of effort to get them to bed, finish their meals, or pay attention to activities. If these things are consistently difficult, that’s a sign. That’s the time to reach out to us.
