Welcome to Little Hands at Play Therapy!

Our clinic was established to give parents in the Fort Smith, Arkansas, area the pediatric therapy services they need, when they need them. We care for children in a holistic manner. In other words, we will assess your child to see which of our services are needed to help them develop the abilities, strengths, and independence they need in life.

Our Services

Pediatric Occupational Therapy

Occupational therapy works with your child to help them achieve independence in everyday life activities, such as dressing and hygiene, toileting, handwriting, social skills, sensory processing, and so much more.

Pediatric Physical Therapy

When a child’s development is delayed for any reason, it’s vital to ensure that they can develop all the strength and mobility needed to help them gain independence in life. Medical conditions, injuries, or overall weakness can make a child reluctant or unable to enjoy play with other children. Our therapists are ready to help your child!

Pediatric Speech Therapy

There are definite milestones that show that a child is acquiring the ability to communicate their needs. Babies begin to babble at a young age and point to objects and people. Toddlers add to their vocabulary. Older children begin to string sentences together. Speech therapy can remedy delays in obtaining these abilities or help those with intellectual or motor disabilities embrace new skills.

Pediatric Feeding Therapy

Feeding therapy helps children with feeding difficulties learn how to eat or eat more easily. A varied diet is needed for good growth and nutrition, but some children don’t tolerate all the textures and flavors. Other children struggle with the mechanics of swallowing. Our Feeding Lab enables us to help children enjoy mealtimes.

Reviews from Our Families

These people are amazing! They opened their arms and hearts to my son and I am truly blessed to have them! My son has had so much growth since seeing them. He loves going and I love bringing him knowing they care so much about my sons improvements!

My daughter has accomplished so much since she started receiving therapy services at Little Hands at Play. I believe that is because of her therapists’ dedication to their jobs and love of helping children. They have rejoiced in the good times and found new plans in the questioning times. We could not have asked for better people and friends to start this therapy journey with!

My daughter frequently goes, she has it twice a week. The staff is super sweet to not only the children that get therapy. But the babies in the lobby waiting for their slibings to be done, they are helpful with the parents that have questions and if there is something that your child needs help with they will add it to his or hers goals. We’ve been going for the last two years and I love it there.

My one year old daughter went to Little Hands at Play Therapy and graduated!  This place is AMAZING!  Sara was her therapist and the one that actually figured out what was wrong and got her fixed up!  I will forever be thankful and grateful for Sara and the rest of the staff!  ❤️

My daughter has done therapy services here for almost a year and just recently graduated! To say we are grateful would be a huge understatement. Rachel and Sam loved on our baby girl for months and helped her thrive and accomplish so much. We will always consider the staff of Little Hands a part of our family.

Jennifer’s entire healthcare team are professional and caring. They respond to our physical and emotional needs with amazing compassion and empathy. I understand what we’re going through it’s a major challenge, and it can be tough, however, they provide great resources, offer reassurance, flexible with our schedule, understand us well, and listen actively in order to target our goals to see our little man succeed. I just love them. Thank you all for being AMAZING!
