Sensory Profile Assessment
The Sensory Profile 2 is a gold-standard, evidence-based assessment used worldwide to understand how children process sensory information across everyday routines. It helps caregivers and practitioners identify a child’s unique sensory patterns, highlight areas of strength, and recognise where additional support may be needed to enhance regulation, comfort, and participation.
Who It’s For
It is ideal for:
• Children from birth to 14 years
• Children who experience sensory differences or sensory processing challenges
• Children with neurodiverse profiles or emotional/behavioural regulation needs
• Families seeking a clearer understanding of their child’s sensory needs in order to support home, school, and community engagement
How the Assessment Works
1.Caregiver Questionnaire
A parent or caregiver completes an online structured questionnaire describing the child’s responses to everyday sensory experiences.
2. Scoring & Interpretation
A trained practitioner analyses the results to identify sensory patterns across the main domains (movement, touch, sound, sight, proprioception, taste/smell) and across the four sensory processing quadrants (Seeking, Avoiding, Sensitivity, Registration).
3. Sensory Pattern Summary
You receive a clear explanation of your child’s sensory preferences, strengths, and areas that may impact daily routines, transitions, social participation, and emotional regulation within 10 days from completing the questionnaire.
4. Personalised Recommendations
A tailored set of practical, evidence-based strategies and environmental adjustments is provided to support regulation, comfort, engagement, independence, and wellbeing.
What You Receive
• A comprehensive report written by a trained practitioner
• A detailed explanation of your child’s sensory patterns
• A strengths-based, neurodiversity-affirming interpretation
• A personalised support plan with home and school strategies
• Recommendations for routines, transitions, learning environments, and self-regulation
Why It Matters
Understanding a child’s sensory profile:
• Helps parents and practitioners make sense of behaviours through a sensory lens
• Supports emotional regulation and reduces overwhelm
• Guides effective routines, environments, and accommodations
• Enhances participation at home, school, and in the community
• Builds self-awareness, confidence, and long-term wellbeing
When a child’s sensory needs are understood and supported, they feel safer, more connected, and more ready to learn and thrive.
