Services cohealth Occupational Therapy offers for fine motor delay
Fine motor skills are essential for everyday activities like writing, fastening buttons, using cutlery, and drawing. At cohealth Occupational Therapy in Across, our occupational therapists work with children to strengthen the small muscles in their hands and fingers, improve coordination, and build confidence with fine motor tasks. Our fine motor service includes targeted activities tailored to each child's needs and interests. For example, we might use threading activities, playdough manipulation, or scissor practice to build hand strength and control. We also incorporate sensory-motor strategies, such as using textured materials or weighted tools, to help children develop better body awareness and hand stability. cohealth Occupational Therapy can support families accessing NDIS funding (2025–26 pricing) to cover these interventions, though we recommend checking your plan details. Our therapists work collaboratively with you and your child's school or early learning service to ensure strategies are practised consistently across different environments, maximising progress over time.

About fine motor delay

Common questions
How do I know if my child has a fine motor delay?
Signs include difficulty holding a pencil, struggling with buttons or zips, messy handwriting, or avoiding drawing and writing activities. An occupational therapist can assess your child's fine motor skills through observation and standardised tests. However, occupational therapists cannot diagnose conditions like autism or developmental coordination disorder—a paediatrician or developmental specialist would do that. cohealth Occupational Therapy can provide an assessment to identify specific areas needing support.
Can NDIS funding cover fine motor therapy at cohealth?
Many children with NDIS plans can access occupational therapy services, including fine motor support, depending on their plan goals and funding allocation. NDIS pricing for 2025–26 varies by service type and location. We recommend reviewing your plan or contacting the NDIA to confirm your funding eligibility. Contact cohealth Occupational Therapy directly to discuss how we can work with your plan.
How long does it take to see improvement in fine motor skills?
Progress varies depending on your child's age, the severity of delay, and how consistently strategies are practised at home and school. Some children show improvements within weeks, while others need several months of regular therapy. Our therapists at cohealth Occupational Therapy will discuss realistic timelines during your initial consultation and keep you updated on progress throughout treatment.
