Ergothérapie en Pédiatrie en Valais provides occupational therapy for young children, children and adolescents who face challenges with everyday independence, learning, movement, development or social participation. Based in Sion, the practice supports each child in building skills for home, school and leisure, working collaboratively with the child and family to set individual treatment goals. Therapy uses practical activities and experimentation to encourage learning and participation.

The team helps with personal care and daily routines, school tasks such as writing, concentration and organization, fine and gross motor skills, emotional regulation, relationships and cooperation. Its support is relevant to a range of needs, including developmental delays, learning difficulties, coordination challenges, attention difficulties, autism spectrum disorder and social or emotional challenges.

Sessions take place at the Sion clinic, at school or at home, depending on the child’s goals and environment. Care begins with a physician’s prescription, followed by two assessment and discussion sessions to identify the child’s needs and strengths and agree on treatment objectives.
