Early intervention Support at Boost Paediatric Occupational Therapy — Upper Mount Gravatt, QLD

Early childhood is a critical period for developing the skills children need for everyday activities, learning, and play. Fine motor development—the ability to use small hand and finger muscles with control and coordination—underpins writing, self-care tasks like dressing and eating, and creative play. At Boost Paediatric Occupational Therapy in Upper Mount Gravatt, our occupational therapists work with young children to build these foundational skills through purposeful, play-based activities. We use tailored interventions such as threading and bead work to strengthen finger dexterity, scissor skills training to prepare for school readiness, and hand-strengthening exercises using playdough or resistance tools. These activities are woven into games and routines that feel natural to children, making therapy engaging rather than clinical. If your child is eligible for NDIS funding in the 2025–26 financial year, therapy sessions may be covered under early intervention supports, helping to reduce out-of-pocket costs. Boost Paediatric Occupational Therapy takes an individualised approach, working closely with families to identify goals that matter most and supporting children to participate fully in home, childcare, and community settings.
