Early Childhood Support Services

A child’s early years are very important as they set up how they will learn and develop later in life. It is during these formative years that fundamental skills are acquired, setting the foundation for cognitive, social emotional and physical development. For children with disabilities, early intervention and support play an even more crucial role in maximizing their potential and enhancing their quality of life. We recognize the significance of this stage and are dedicated to ensuring that every child receives the support they need to thrive and reach their full potential.

Early Childhood Approach Eligibility

  • Children younger than 6 with developmental delay (formal diagnosis is not required).

  • Children younger than 9 with disability.

NDIS Early Intervention for Children Under 9 Years Old

The early childhood approach helps children younger than 6 with developmental delays or children younger than 9 with disabilities and their families access the right support to enable them to have the best possible start in life. Children younger than 6 do not need a diagnosis to get support through the early childhood approach where there are concerns about their development. Concerns about your child’s development might include how, in comparison with other children their age, they:
