Parent and Child groups

In our under 5s services, we offer Conductive Education and Occupational Therapy sessions for children that are aged 0-5. In these, we work in close collaboration with parents/guardians with the aim to reach their milestones and full potentials.

We support children with a wide range of motor difficulties, including but not limited to: Cerebral Palsy, Global Developmental Delay, Acquired Brain Injury and Down Syndrome.

Parents/guardians: For more information about joining and receiving a free initial assessment, please email us at info@whoopsadaisy.org.

Professionals: Please review our criteria and email us a completed *referral form* to info@whoopsadaisy.org.

What to expect in our sessions?

After your assessment, you and your child will be recommended for a group to join based on age and current abilities.

The sessions are built around the needs and goals of the participating children and are one to two hours long, either weekly or biweekly.

This will include:

  • A new perspective and understanding of how to transfer the principles learned in sessions into everyday life. 
  • A collaborative approach between the Conductor, the OT, yourself (as the parent) and the child. We want to support you to further facilitate your child’s progression and support you in integrating the exciting new ideas into everyday life.
  • A holistic approach where we consider improvement in all areas of their development, such as their physical, social, cognitive, emotional and many other areas.
  • Education and information are provided on how to continue improvements at home, how to most effectively use equipment, and about other services available in the area.
  • A positive atmosphere and community is where Whoopsadaisy prides itself. We have wonderful children who make lifelong friends, and families who make up our wonderful community.  

Our under 5s services are interactive and carefully designed to be age and developmentally appropriate, but are all focussed around play! Children make friends and have fun, all while learning essential skills for living a full and independent life.
