NDIS Early Childhood Supports

Our key workers are mainly teachers with a degree in education and specialist training in child development and learning. They will be your main therapist and day-to-day contact for all your early intervention services.  They support your child and family as part of a broader team that may include speech pathologists, occupational therapists, physiotherapists, behaviour support practitioners, and habit coaches.

Our key workers are mainly teachers with a degree in education.  They use their specialised training in child development and learning to design and implement strategies across developmental areas, including social, emotional, physical, cognitive, and language. They do this in a way that engages your family and other important people in your child’s life, such as their teacher.  

There are some specialised areas that only a speech pathologist, physiotherapist or occupational therapist can assess and provide advice on. The key worker will link in these team members where this support is required. 

Our key workers use their specialised training in child development and learning to design and implement strategies to support your child’s development. These include activities to improve fine motor skills, language development, or strategies to help with sensory processing issues. Other members of your child’s team, such as speech pathologists, occupational therapists, and physiotherapists, can also use these strategies.

Key workers can deliver more than an individual registered occupational therapist, speech pathologist or physiotherapist as they can implement their strategies and activities as well as those designed by the team of therapists.
