The primary strategy for successful treatment in Occupational Therapy is to observe the little clients carefully and constantly adapt the implemented strategies to the improvement.

When starting the therapy process a baseline is established by evaluating and understanding the underlying causes to select the appropriate treatment.

Fators taken into consideration are:

*Pregnancy/Birth history
*Physical Development
*Emotional Development
*Communication/Speech Development
*Motor Development
*Functional Movement Patterns
*Environmental factors
incl. leisure activities/habits
*Social skills
*Cognitive Skills
*Visual Skills
*Established compensatory mechanisms
*Reflex Patterns
*Sensory Processing
*Medical history/records
*Scholastic performance

We need to understand the whole child, their history and their environment to be sure we are helping them in the best possible way.

👊 When siblings fight, it can feel exhausting — but it’s not a sign that you’ve failed as a parent.

Fights are actually practice:
✨ Learning how to problem-solve
✨ Managing big emotions
✨ Building empathy
✨ Repairing relationships

Your role isn’t to referee every moment, but to guide them calmly and model how conflict can be handled with respect.

💡 Next time it gets noisy, remember — this is learning in action.
