About Us
“Charis” is derived from a Greek word meaning grace, kindness, and life. At Charis Kids, it is our mission to reflect these values in our practice. We see each child as unique beings, with a potential for greatness and a bright future ahead of them. Through Occupational Therapy, it is our vision to walk alongside families to help these little ones achieve their goals so that they too, can shine their light for others.

Why Charis Kids?
We provide services for children aged 0-12 years old, with or without a diagnosis. We are experienced in providing treatment for children with Autism, Developmental Delay, Intellectual Disability, Down Syndrome, Developmental Coordination Disorder, Sensory Processing Difficulties and other disorders.
We strongly encourage the participation of parents during therapy sessions to ensure continuation of therapy at home / school to reap the maximum benefits of therapy.
Services
We provide clinic-based as well as mobile services such as visits to childcare centre, preschool, school and home, depending on what suits the child and family best.
We work closely with the child's parents and other important people in the child's life, implementing a child-centre and holistic approach to provide the highest quality treatment for the child.
