What should you look for in seating for an autistic child?

Sitting still is not one skill. It needs core strength, a stable base under the feet, and a body that feels settled enough to stay put. When any of those is missing, a child slides, tips the chair or simply gets up.

Physiotherapists and occupational therapists look at posture first: hips, knees and ankles near right angles, feet flat, desk at elbow height. Some children also do better in a chair that moves slightly, because small movement keeps them regulated rather than distracting them.

Our range covers height-adjustable study chairs and kneeling stools, children's table and chair sets, hammocks, swing chairs and a therapy swing, teepees and a therapy pod, plus sensory rugs and low bookshelves. A pod in the corner of a classroom gives a child somewhere to go early. Parents often hang a swing chair in a bedroom for after school.

Delivery is free and tracked Australia-wide with no minimum spend. Smaller pieces keep the seven-day change-of-mind guarantee, while furniture and other large items are excluded because of what the freight costs to reverse, as our refund policy explains. Faults we cover in full, collection included.
