Therapy that meets your child right where they are — at home.
Play-based, child-led, neuro-affirming occupational therapy delivered in your own home — wherever growth naturally happens.
What is occupational therapy, and is it right for your child?
Occupational therapy helps children build the everyday skills they need to play, eat, dress, learn, and connect with the people around them. When something gets in the way of those everyday moments — big emotions, sensory overwhelm, tricky mealtimes, or motor skills that feel harder than they should — OT helps figure out why, and builds a plan to support it.
In-home pediatric OT tends to be a good fit if your child is working on regulation, motor skills, feeding, daily routines, or school readiness — especially if a clinic setting feels overwhelming, unfamiliar, or hard to transition into. If you're not sure whether this is the right kind of support for your child, that's exactly what the free intake call is for.
Regulation before expectation.
A child who feels safe and regulated in their body is a child who can learn, connect, and grow — and that sense of safety is often easiest to build in the place your child already knows best: their own home.
Real coaching, in real life
Sessions happen in the exact spaces your child lives in, so strategies are built to work there.
You're part of every session
Parents are coached directly and immersed in the process throughout.
A gentle path in
In-home support is often the right starting point for children who aren't ready for a clinic setting, or who find transitions hard.
A toolkit built for your child
Together we find the specific strategies and equipment that support your child in meeting their goals.
Hi, I'm Tatyana.
I'm a pediatric occupational therapist supporting children of all exceptionalities. I use a play-based, child-led approach — motivation, engagement, and relationships come first, and real learning follows from there.
Tatyana is a Registered Occupational Therapist with the College of Occupational Therapists of Ontario. She holds a Bachelor of Applied Science in Psychology and a Certificate in Research Skills and Analysis from the University of Guelph-Humber, and a Master of Science in Occupational Therapy from the University of Toronto.
Her international pediatric placement at one of Mumbai's largest pediatric centers allowed her to design culturally relevant, play-based interventions supporting children with exceptionalities in home, school, and community settings. Since then, Tatyana has worked extensively with pediatric populations, building expertise in sensory and emotional regulation, fine and gross motor development, feeding with sensory considerations, and activity tolerance. She has also completed preceptor training and enjoys mentoring students and new graduates.
