Melbourne – 11/2/26: Sensory Play Centre has announced the expansion of its inclusive play services, introducing new accessible play equipment, enhanced therapeutic sensory experiences, and additional professional support to better serve children with special needs and their families across Melbourne West.

The expansion reflects growing demand for play environments that move beyond traditional entertainment and focus on meaningful developmental support. Sensory Play Centre’s upgraded offerings are designed to support sensory regulation, motor skill development, emotional wellbeing, and social confidence, all within a calm and welcoming setting.

Newly introduced adaptive equipment allows children of varying physical and sensory needs to engage safely in movement-based and tactile play. Alongside this, expanded therapeutic sensory experiences offer structured activities guided by trained professionals who understand how children process sensory input differently.

The centre’s team includes qualified disability support workers, therapists, and trained play facilitators who work closely with families to create personalised experiences. These professionals help children engage in play that supports regulation, builds confidence, and encourages participation at a pace that suits each child.
In addition to expanded open play opportunities, Sensory Play Centre continues to offer private hire sessions, one-on-one support, school holiday programs, and structured respite care. These services are particularly valuable for families seeking consistent, accessible options during busy periods or when additional support is needed.

“Every child deserves the chance to experience joy, curiosity, and connection through play, regardless of their abilities. We’ve seen how traditional play spaces can unintentionally exclude children with sensory sensitivities or additional needs, and that’s something we are committed to changing.” A spokesperson for Sensory Play Centre shared further insight into the centre’s mission and the importance of inclusive play “Our expansion is about more than adding equipment; it’s about deepening our understanding of what children truly need to feel confident and engaged. By combining accessible design with therapeutic sensory experiences and skilled professionals, we’re creating an environment where children can explore freely, regulate their emotions, and build essential life skills through play.”

As awareness around inclusive design and disability-friendly services continues to grow, Sensory Play Centre’s expansion highlights the role of specialised play environments in supporting early development and family wellbeing. The centre remains committed to evolving its services in response to community needs and best practice in sensory-based support.

Families interested in learning more about the expanded services are encouraged to contact Sensory Play Centre directly to discuss options, availability, and tailored support.
