Early Childhood Supports

The early years are a time of rapid learning. Early childhood supports help young children with developmental delay or disability, and their families, build the skills that help with everyday life.

How early childhood supports can help

Depending on your child’s needs and your plan, supports can include:

  • communication and language
  • movement, play and everyday skills
  • taking part in family life, playgroup, kindergarten and community activities
  • practical strategies for parents and carers to use at home
  • connecting your family with other services

Families are at the centre

Parents and carers know their child best. Support is built around your family’s routines and goals, so what your child practises in sessions carries over into everyday life.

Working with allied health

Early childhood supports often draw on our speech pathology, occupational therapy and physiotherapy professionals, coordinated under one plan.
