Wait times for paediatric OT in Queensland vary depending on whether you're accessing public or private services. Public services through your local health district may have longer wait times, sometimes several months. Private practitioners often have shorter wait times. It's worth contacting several providers in your area to understand current availability. Your GP can also provide information about local services and referral pathways.
A first appointment typically involves the therapist getting to know your child and understanding your concerns. They'll observe how your child plays, moves, and interacts. You'll discuss your child's development, daily routines, and any challenges you've noticed. The therapist may ask about school, home life, and what you'd like to work on. This helps them understand your child's needs and plan appropriate support moving forward.
If your child has an NDIS plan, occupational therapy can be included as a funded support. Check your plan to see if OT is listed and what funding amount you have available. You'll need to find an NDIS-registered OT provider in or near LOTA. Once you've chosen a provider, they'll work with you to access your funding. Your NDIS planner or local area coordinator can help explain your options.
Paediatric OTs in LOTA generally support children with daily living skills, school readiness, fine motor development, and sensory needs. They may work on self-care tasks like dressing and eating, handwriting and pencil grip, play skills, and coordination. Some therapists offer home visits or school consultations. Services vary by provider, so it's worth asking what each practitioner offers when you contact them.
If you're concerned about your child's development, coordination, self-care skills, or school performance, it's worth discussing with your GP or child health nurse. They can help determine whether an OT assessment would be helpful. Common reasons parents seek OT include difficulties with fine motor skills, sensory sensitivities, self-care routines, or school adjustment. Your GP can provide guidance on whether an assessment is appropriate for your child.

NDIS funding
If your child has an NDIS plan, occupational therapy (OT) is often funded as a support. Understanding your plan type helps you access services smoothly.
## Plan Types
You might have a self-managed plan (you control the budget), a plan-managed arrangement (a plan manager handles funds), or an NDIA-managed plan (the NDIS manages it). Each works differently when paying for OT.
## Budget Categories
OT typically falls under "Supports for Daily Living" or "Core Supports" in your plan. Check your NDIS plan letter to see your allocated amount.
## Finding a Clinic
Contact OT clinics directly and ask if they accept your plan type. They'll confirm whether they're registered NDIS providers and how they process payments. This conversation takes the guesswork out of booking.
Your NDIS planner can also suggest registered providers in your area.
