Services Early Start Australia Manly offers for developmental delay
Early Start Australia Manly provides early intervention support for children experiencing developmental delay, focusing on building foundational skills across movement, communication, and daily living activities. Early intervention during the critical early years can help children develop confidence and independence. Our occupational therapists work with children through play-based activities tailored to each child's needs and interests. Examples of interventions might include fine motor exercises using threading, puzzles, and scissor skills to support hand strength and coordination; sensory activities such as play with different textures and movement experiences to help children process sensory information; and structured routines with visual supports to assist with transitions and understanding daily sequences. Early Start Australia Manly collaborates with families to embed these strategies into everyday routines at home. While many families access services through NDIS funding (2025-26 arrangements), we work with various funding pathways to support access. Our team takes a collaborative approach, working alongside other professionals involved in your child's care to ensure consistent, coordinated support for developmental progress.

Common questions
How do I know if my child needs early intervention?
If you've noticed your child is developing differently from peers—such as delays in movement, speech, social skills, or self-care tasks—early intervention can be beneficial. Early Start Australia Manly can discuss your observations and help determine whether occupational therapy support would be helpful. Early identification allows more time for skill development during these important years.
Can occupational therapy diagnose conditions like autism or ADHD?
Occupational therapists cannot diagnose autism, ADHD, or sensory processing differences. However, Early Start Australia Manly can identify functional difficulties in daily activities and skills, and can refer you to appropriate professionals for formal assessment if needed. Our focus is supporting your child's participation and independence in everyday tasks.
How does NDIS funding work with Early Start Australia Manly?
Many families access early intervention through NDIS funding. Early Start Australia Manly can discuss funding options available to you, including NDIS arrangements for 2025-26. We also work with families exploring other funding pathways. Contact us to discuss what might be available for your child's situation.
