  • To ensure a safe and healthy environment, we use a thumbs up / thumbs down system to guide families on attending in person:

    👍 Thumbs Up:
    Mild, non-contagious symptoms, such as occasional sniffles, a light cough or a clear runny nose.

    👎 Thumbs Down:
    Symptoms that may suggest a contagious illness including:

    • Fever or chills

    • Persistent cough or throat irritation

    • Upset stomach, vomiting, or diarrhea

    • Red or watery eyes (conjunctivitis)

    • Runny or congested nose

    • General body aches or fatigue

    Please Note - If coming to the clinic isn’t possible, we provide alternative options, including telehealth.

  • At OTPaeds, we are committed to supporting your child and your family in all aspects of their therapy. This may include communicating with other therapists within your child’s team, attending meetings or case conferences, contacting teachers via email or phone, creating resources for home, school, or preschool, and preparing progress notes. These services help ensure a coordinated and comprehensive approach to your child’s care.

    Please note that non-face-to-face services may incur a charge, calculated based on a 15-minute timeframe ($48.50 per 15 minutes).
