At Sensory Assist, we prioritise the safety and well-being of all our customers, especially children with specific sensory needs. Our products are carefully selected to support diverse sensory requirements and are designed with safety in mind.

Product Selection and Safety Measures

  • Age Appropriateness

We ensure that our sensory toys and tools are suitable for various age groups, considering the developmental stages and safety requirements of each group.

  • Material Safety

Our products are made from non-toxic, durable materials to withstand frequent use and to ensure they are safe for children.

  • Design Considerations

We select items that match specific sensory preferences, whether they benefit from tactile, auditory, visual, or proprioceptive input, to cater to individual needs effectively.

Guidance for Parents and Educators

We recommend that parents and educators assess each child's unique sensory needs and consult with professionals, such as occupational therapists, to select the most appropriate products. This personalised approach ensures that the sensory tools chosen will effectively support the child's development and safety.

For more information on selecting age-appropriate sensory toys and creating sensory-friendly environments, please visit our Sensory Assist Blog.

If you have specific concerns or need further assistance, our customer service team is available to help you make informed choices tailored to your child's needs.

Choosing the right product for your child’s unique sensory requirements involves understanding their specific needs and preferences. Here’s how you can make an informed decision:

1. Consult with Professionals

  • Speak with your child’s occupational therapist, teacher, or healthcare provider for recommendations tailored to their sensory profile.
  • Professionals can suggest tools that align with your child’s developmental goals.


2. Understand Your Child’s Sensory Preferences

  • Identify whether your child is a sensory seeker (craves input) or avoider (prefers less stimulation).
  • For example, weighted blankets may help sensory avoiders who need calming input, while body socks might suit sensory seekers who enjoy movement and proprioceptive feedback.


3. Match Products to Needs

  • Look for products designed to address specific challenges, such as improving focus, calming anxiety, or encouraging movement.
  • Check product descriptions and reviews to understand how others have used them.

4. Start Small and Experiment

  • Begin with one or two versatile tools, like a weighted lap pad or fidget toy, to observe how your child responds.
  • Gradually introduce more products based on their feedback and engagement.

5. Consider Age Appropriateness

  • Ensure the product is suitable for your child’s age and developmental stage to maximise safety and effectiveness.
  • Check product labels or descriptions for age recommendations.

6. Safety First

  • Choose non-toxic, durable products that meet safety standards, especially for younger children or those prone to mouthing items.
  • Sensory Assist provides detailed product descriptions and specifications to help you make safe choices.

7. Ask for Help

  • Reach out to Sensory Assist’s customer support for personalised advice or browse their blog for tips and insights on sensory tools.
  • Engage with the community through reviews or forums to hear experiences from other parents.

By following these steps, you can confidently choose products that will best support your child’s unique sensory journey.
