Wait times for paediatric OT in Victoria vary depending on the service provider and your child's needs. Public services through the health system may have longer wait lists, sometimes several months. Private practitioners often have shorter wait times. It's worth contacting several providers in the Laverton area to understand current availability. If you're concerned about your child's development, your GP can discuss options and help prioritise referrals.
A first appointment typically includes the therapist getting to know your child and family. They'll ask about your concerns, your child's daily routines, and what activities are challenging. The therapist may observe your child playing or completing tasks. This helps them understand your child's strengths and areas where support might help. Bring any relevant information about your child's health or development to share.
If your child has an NDIS plan, occupational therapy can be included as a support. Check your plan documents to see if OT is listed and what funding is allocated. You can search the NDIS provider finder to locate registered OT services in Laverton. Contact providers directly to confirm they accept NDIS participants. Your NDIS planner or local coordinator can also help you understand your funding and find suitable providers.
Paediatric OTs generally support children with daily activities like self-care, play, and learning. They may help with fine motor skills, coordination, sensory needs, and independence in school or home routines. Some offer strategies for managing transitions or social situations. Services might include one-to-one sessions, group programs, or advice for parents and teachers. Contact local providers to learn about their specific offerings and approach.
You might consider OT if your child struggles with everyday tasks like dressing, eating, writing, or playing. Concerns about coordination, concentration, or managing sensory experiences are also reasons to explore support. Every child develops at their own pace. If you're worried about your child's development or daily functioning, speak with your GP. They can discuss whether an OT assessment might be helpful and guide you towards appropriate services.

NDIS funding
Using NDIS funding for paediatric occupational therapy in Victoria
If your child has an approved NDIS plan, occupational therapy is often funded under the 'Therapy and Supports' or 'Core Supports' budget categories. Check your plan document to see what amount has been allocated.
You can manage your NDIS funding in three ways: self-managed (you pay and claim back), plan-managed (a registered plan manager handles payments), or NDIA-managed (the NDIA pays providers directly).
Different occupational therapy clinics accept different plan types. Before booking, contact the clinic directly and ask: 'Do you accept [self-managed/plan-managed/NDIA-managed] plans?' They'll let you know if they're set up to work with your arrangement.
Keep your plan documents handy when making enquiries. If you're unsure whether occupational therapy is right for your child, speak with your GP or paediatrician first.
