In-Home Pediatric Occupational Therapy Across the Bay Area

The skills that matter most are the ones your child can use right now, in the places they actually live.

Clinic-based therapy asks a child to learn a skill in a controlled, unfamiliar room and then transfer it home. In-home OT skips that transfer problem entirely. When your therapist works with your child in the kitchen, the bedroom, the backyard, or the school classroom, the skills being built are immediately connected to the real-world context where they need to show up.

For children with sensory processing differences, ADHD, or Autism, generalizing a skill from a clinical setting to home can be one of the hardest parts of progress. By working in your child’s natural environment, we reduce that cognitive load and accelerate meaningful, lasting development.

Parents also learn more. When your OT is right there alongside you in your actual home, coaching becomes immediate and practical. You see exactly how to set up the morning routine, how to modify the dinner table for a sensory-sensitive eater, and how to create a calming corner that actually works for your specific child.

No waiting rooms, no transition stress, just purposeful play in a familiar space.

Your therapist arrives at your home (or school or outdoor meeting point) with all the materials needed for the session. Sessions typically run 45 to 60 minutes and are structured around your child’s current goals, but flexible enough to follow their lead on any given day.

A session might include:

• Proprioceptive and vestibular activities using portable swings, resistance bands, or a backpack weighted just right for your child’s sensory needs (proprioception is the sense of body position and movement; vestibular input comes from motion and gravity)
• Fine motor tasks embedded in play: threading, cutting, building, drawing
• Feeding practice at your actual table, with your child’s real foods and dishes
• Emotional regulation strategies practiced in the moments and spaces where dysregulation typically occurs
• Parent coaching woven throughout, so you leave every session with tools you can use today

We wrap up with a brief check-in with you, sharing observations, progress notes, and home strategies before the next session.

You don’t need to prepare anything. We bring the tools, the expertise, and the plan.

Our mobile therapists travel fully equipped. You won’t need to purchase specialized equipment or rearrange your home before we arrive. We bring portable sensory tools, therapeutic materials, and activity supplies tailored to your child’s current treatment goals. What we ask of you is simple: a reasonably clear space to work in, and your presence so we can coach and collaborate in real time.

Our mobile team covers a wide area across the South Bay and Peninsula.

We currently provide in-home pediatric OT services throughout Mountain View, Los Altos, Los Altos Hills, Palo Alto, Sunnyvale, Cupertino, Saratoga, and San Jose. A travel fee applies for sessions outside our standard service radius, and we’ll discuss that transparently before your first appointment.

Private-pay services with superbills provided for out-of-network insurance reimbursement.

Therapeeps is a private-pay practice. We provide detailed superbills after each session so you can submit for out-of-network reimbursement through your insurance. Many Bay Area families with PPO plans recoup a significant portion of costs this way. A travel fee applies for home visits, and we’ll confirm the exact amount for your address before you commit to anything.

Call us at (650) 204-0677 to ask about current session rates, discuss your insurance benefits, and get your first appointment scheduled.
