What you'll explore
Understanding Independence & Readiness
Explore what independence means for your child and family, including participation with support. Consider readiness, motivation, accessibility and the difference between needing help and needing an opportunity to practise.
Self-Care & Daily Living Skills
Learn to look at daily living skills as a sequence of smaller steps. Explore how manageable expectations, consistent opportunities and appropriate assistance can support participation.
Toileting, Feeding, Dressing & Personal Hygiene
Explore the practical demands of personal care routines, including comfort, privacy, communication and sensory preferences. Consider how to individualise support and recognise concerns that need professional advice.
Routines, Transitions & Household Participation
Consider how predictable routines, preparation and clear cues can support transitions and participation at home. Explore household activities that offer meaningful roles for your child.
Moving from Dependence to Functional Independence
Explore how to adjust assistance as a skill develops while preserving access to help. Focus on useful participation, choice and progress across real situations rather than expecting every task to be done alone.
