A Warm, Welcoming Space for Your Child

THC Kids Caulfield is a clinic-based paediatric OT clinic in the heart of Caulfield. Our kids OT clinic supports families across Glen Eira, Bayside and Stonnington in a calm, sensory-friendly environment designed to help children feel safe, settled and ready to engage.

We focus on personalised care and meaningful goals. Parents are involved at every step. Therapy is built around your child’s real life. What feels hard at school. What is challenging at home. What is getting in the way of confidence and independence.

Our paediatric occupational therapy Caulfield service is integrated with our broader care team, including physiotherapy for kids & teens and other paediatric allied health services. This allows your child to receive consistent, coordinated support in one place.
