When your child turns nine, an Everyday Independence developmental educator will take over from your key worker, building on what we know about your family to plan paediatric therapy that drives positive change through primary school.
They’ll focus on supporting your child through transitions, like starting a new school or grade, while helping them build friendships, tackle social challenges, and meet increasing educational demands.
At Everyday Independence, developmental educators act as your child’s primary therapist, leading and coordinating their therapy journey. They’ll also connect you with other supports, such as allied health services, education resources, mental health professionals, and community services, ensuring your child receives holistic support.
Developmental educators will:
Identify and address any environmental barriers that may impact a successful transition
Implement strategies to support your child to adapt to each new grade
Provide ongoing support and adjustments to therapy plans to ensure progress.
