Services Child and Family Health Service offers for developmental delay
Child and Family Health Service lists developmental delay as a service area. Occupational therapy for developmental delay typically focuses on building skills across self-care, play, learning, and social participation. According to its listing, the clinic may support children through targeted activities designed to strengthen areas where development is slower than expected for a child's age.
Intervention examples that occupational therapists commonly use include fine-motor exercises such as threading beads, scissor practice, or pencil grip activities to build hand strength and coordination. Gross-motor work might involve balance activities on therapy equipment, climbing challenges, or coordination games to develop body awareness and movement control. Self-care skill-building is another focus area, where therapists may use visual schedules and step-by-step practice to help children learn dressing, feeding, or toileting routines.
Child and Family Health Service may also incorporate sensory activities tailored to each child's needs, recognising that some children with developmental delay benefit from structured sensory input. The clinic's approach would typically be individualised, with therapy goals set based on each child's specific areas of need.

Common questions

This might include fine-motor skills like writing or fastening buttons, gross-motor abilities such as balance and coordination, self-care routines, and play skills. Child and Family Health Service would assess where a child needs support and design activities to build confidence and independence in those areas.
Is Child and Family Health Service registered with the NDIS?
NDIS registration for Child and Family Health Service has not been confirmed in the current directory snapshot. Parents should contact the clinic directly to ask about NDIS eligibility, whether the service is registered, and what funding options may be available for their child's therapy needs.
What should I expect in the first appointment?
Initial appointments typically involve the occupational therapist gathering information about the child's developmental history, current abilities, and family goals. The therapist may observe the child during play and everyday activities to understand their strengths and areas where support is needed. This assessment helps the clinic plan individualised therapy tailored to the child's specific developmental needs.
