Occupational Therapy

At Premium Learning Programs, we offer occupational therapy for children aged 2 to 18, supporting them to reach their goals and become the best versions of themselves. Our mission is to help each child confidently participate in the activities they want and need to do each day.

We create a safe, supportive space where all individuals can learn, grow, and thrive. Using evidence-based interventions and assessments, we nurture lifelong learners and build strong problem-solving skills that empower children well beyond the therapy room.

We are committed to family-centred practice, working in close partnership with families to provide practical strategies that support their child’s development. By equipping families with tools they can use in everyday life, we help promote transferable skills and success across a variety of settings. Our approach is also proudly neuro-affirming, celebrating and supporting neurodiversity in every child we work with.
