Local OT guide
OTWaitlist lists 44 paediatric occupational therapy clinics across Victoria in the current directory snapshot. In this snapshot, none are confirmed as taking new clients; wait status is unconfirmed or shows waitlists across the directory. All listed availability is self-reported or drawn from public sources and can change — check the last checked date on each listing and confirm directly with the clinic before booking. OTWaitlist does not provide medical advice or diagnose; for your child's specific needs, speak with your GP or paediatrician.
Victoria's paediatric OT clinics are spread across Greater Melbourne suburbs, regional cities like Geelong, Ballarat, and Bendigo, and smaller towns. Families often search for clinics in their local suburb first, then compare nearby areas if local books are full. Use the suburb links on this page to see more detailed clinic lists for Melbourne suburbs, regional VIC centres, and Gippsland areas. The filters help narrow by wait status, NDIS registration, telehealth, and home-visit availability.
Many families access paediatric OT through NDIS funding, Medicare allied health care plans under a GP Management Plan, private health insurance, or private payment. NDIS-registered providers are marked in the listings. Always confirm fees, funding arrangements, current wait times, and appointment availability directly with the clinic.
If you're unsure where to start, speak with your GP or paediatrician about whether an OT assessment would help your child. They can discuss your concerns, provide a referral if needed, and guide you through funding pathways. For children under nine with developmental concerns, the NDIS Early Childhood Approach may apply — contact an Early Childhood Partner for advice.
Use the enquiry form on this page to contact multiple clinics at once, or browse individual clinic profiles to see services offered, availability badges, and last-checked dates. Remember that self-reported and last checked labels mean you should always confirm current status with the clinic. Listed does not mean endorsed — OTWaitlist does not rank or recommend specific clinics.

OTWaitlist lists 44 paediatric OT clinics across VIC in the current directory snapshot. This includes Greater Melbourne suburbs, regional cities like Geelong, Ballarat, and Bendigo, and smaller towns. The count reflects clinics with public listings and may not include every practitioner in the state. Use the suburb links to narrow your search to specific local areas.
In the current snapshot, no clinics across VIC are confirmed as taking new clients. This may reflect unconfirmed status rather than actual capacity. Check the last checked date on each listing and confirm current wait times and availability directly with the clinic before enquiring or booking. Waitlist alert forms on suburb pages notify you when status changes.
Clinics listing NDIS registration are marked with an NDIS badge in the directory. The count varies across suburbs. NDIS registration means the clinic is registered with the NDIS Commission to provide supports under NDIS plans. Always confirm current NDIS pricing, plan compatibility, and invoicing arrangements directly with the clinic.
Some VIC clinics list telehealth or home-visit availability in their profiles. These options can help families in regional areas or where travel is difficult. Telehealth and home-visit badges show what the clinic has listed publicly. Confirm current availability, fees, and whether these options suit your child's needs when you contact the clinic.
Each listing shows a last checked date. Self-reported means the clinic or OTWaitlist recorded the status at that date. Clinic-confirmed means the clinic actively confirmed their status. Availability can change between checks. Always confirm current wait times, taking-new status, and appointment availability directly with the clinic. OTWaitlist does not guarantee real-time accuracy.

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.
