Sensory Profile Report Tool

Free Sensory Profile Generator (With Strategy Suggestions)

The Sensory Profile Tool is designed to help parents, caregivers, and teaching staff better understand and support children with sensory processing differences. This easy-to-use resource provides tailored strategies based on the child’s sensory preferences and needs, making it accessible even for those without specialist training. After completing the sensory profile, you’ll receive a clear breakdown of the child’s sensory challenges and strengths across various areas, such as touch, sound, movement, and more. From there, you can explore a bank of practical strategies to create a supportive environment and tailor activities to meet the child’s unique sensory needs. Simply identify the sensory area where support is needed, and choose strategies that fit your setting, whether at home, school, or in the community. This tool empowers you to make informed, small changes that can greatly impact the child’s comfort, engagement, and well-being.

Free Sensory Profile Tool

While the Sensory Profile Tool provides helpful strategies for everyday support, it’s important to remember that every child is unique. If you have concerns about a child’s sensory needs or development, consider seeking guidance from occupational therapists, speech and language therapists, or pediatricians. They can provide personalised assessments and interventions to ensure the child receives the most effective and comprehensive support. Please note we cannot see your answers and do not store or save any data.
