Wait times for paediatric OT in NSW vary depending on whether you're accessing services through the public system, private practitioners, or NDIS. Public services may have longer wait lists, sometimes several months. Private practitioners in Chester Hill may have shorter timeframes. It's worth contacting several providers to understand current availability. If you're concerned about your child's development, speaking with your GP can help prioritise your needs and explore options.
A first OT appointment typically includes the therapist gathering information about your child's background, development, and any concerns you have. They'll observe your child during play and everyday activities, and may use informal assessments to understand their strengths and areas where they need support. This helps the therapist develop a picture of your child's needs. Bring any relevant medical or developmental information with you to help the process.
If your child has an NDIS plan, you can use allocated funding for OT services. First, ensure your plan includes funding for occupational therapy. Then, find a registered NDIS provider in Chester Hill or nearby areas who offers paediatric OT. You can search the NDIS provider directory online. Contact providers directly to discuss your child's needs and how they can support your plan goals. Your NDIS planner or local area coordinator can also provide guidance.
Paediatric OTs in Chester Hill generally support children with daily living skills, fine motor development, sensory processing, school readiness, and play skills. They may offer clinic-based sessions, school consultations, or home visits depending on the provider. Services often include assessment, therapy, and advice for parents and carers. Contact local providers to ask about their specific offerings and whether they work with children in your child's age group.
You might consider OT if your child has difficulty with everyday tasks like dressing, eating, or writing, or if they struggle with play, coordination, or sensory sensitivities. Some children benefit from OT support for school readiness or managing transitions. If you're noticing concerns about your child's development or functioning, speaking with your GP is a good starting point. They can discuss your observations and help determine whether an OT assessment might be helpful.

NDIS funding
Understanding NDIS Funding for Paediatric Occupational Therapy in NSW
If your child has an approved NDIS plan, occupational therapy (OT) can be funded through it. Your plan type affects how you access services.
There are three plan types: self-managed (you manage funds directly), plan-managed (a plan manager handles payments), and NDIA-managed (the NDIA pays providers). Each works differently, so check your plan documents to see which applies to you.
Occupational therapy typically falls under the "Therapy and Supports" or "Core Supports" budget category in your plan. Your plan letter will show your allocated amount.
When choosing a clinic, contact them directly and ask: "Do you accept [your plan type]?" They'll confirm whether they're registered with the NDIS and can work with your funding arrangement.
If you're unsure about your plan details, contact the NDIA or your plan manager for clarification.
