You’ve Been Told “They’ll Grow Out of It” But Something Still Feels Off...
You may have heard, “Let’s wait and see” or “It’s just a phase,” but your instincts say otherwise.
At Skill Sense, we don’t focus on labels. We look at what’s happening for your child and your family. Through a comprehensive assessment, we uncover your child’s strengths and challenges and identify the underlying reasons they may be struggling with everyday activities.
Whether the challenges are sensory, behavioural, or learning-related, we work toward family-led goals, providing practical, evidence-informed support that fits your real life.
With the right guidance, small changes can lead to meaningful progress at home, in the classroom, and beyond.

PARENT-CENTERED
SUPPORT
We work with you to equip you with the knowledge and tools to support your child with confidence.

Grounded in Ayres Sensory Integration® and over 20 years of clinical experience, our strategies are effective, realistic, and tailored to your child.

We help you make sense of what’s going on beneath the behaviour, so you can take meaningful steps forward at home and in everyday life.
FLEXIBLE, ACCESSIBLE SERVICES
Get support when and where it suits you through telehealth consultations, coaching, and online programs.
I understand how overwhelming it can feel when you want the best for your child but nothing seems to work.
I’ve helped many parents who are worried about their child’s behaviour, learning, or sensory challenges.
Often, what looks like misbehaviour or inattention is actually a sign that your child is struggling to process the world around them. When we understand what’s going on underneath, we can support them more effectively.
I’m Esmé Le Roux, founder of Skill Sense. I created this space to bring my knowledge directly to you, the parent, through coaching sessions and online courses. As a senior occupational therapist with over 20 years of experience, and certified in Ayres Sensory Integration®, I can help you better understand your child and feel confident in how you support them.
You're not alone—and with the right guidance, things can improve.
