Early intervention Support at Inner West Paediatrics — Across NSW
Inner West Paediatrics in Across NSW lists services that overlap with paediatric occupational therapy for early intervention.
Services Inner West Paediatrics offers for early intervention
Early childhood development relies on strong foundations in fine motor skills and sensory processing. Inner West Paediatrics supports children in this critical phase through targeted occupational therapy services. Fine motor development—such as grasping, hand strength, and coordination—underpins writing, self-care, and play. Our therapists use graded activities like threading beads, playdough manipulation, and scissor work to build these skills progressively. Sensory processing helps children interpret and respond appropriately to their environment; difficulties here can affect focus, behaviour, and learning. Inner West Paediatrics incorporates sensory strategies including weighted lap pads during activities, controlled exposure to different textures, and movement breaks using balance equipment to help children self-regulate. Early intervention during these formative years can support smoother transitions into school and daily routines. Funding through the NDIS (2025–26) may be available for eligible children; we recommend discussing your child's circumstances with your GP or local early intervention service to explore support options. Our team works collaboratively with families and other professionals to ensure consistent, meaningful progress aligned with your child's individual needs and goals.

About early intervention
Early childhood is a time of rapid development across play, movement, communication, self-care, and social skills. When concerns about a child's early development arise, paediatric occupational therapy is one of the allied health supports often involved.

Common questions
How do I know if my child needs occupational therapy for early development?
Signs include difficulty with tasks like holding utensils, buttons, or pencils; avoiding certain textures or movements; clumsiness; or trouble focusing in busy environments. Your GP, early childhood educator, or health visitor can refer you. Inner West Paediatrics can discuss your observations and determine whether an assessment would be helpful.
Can occupational therapy diagnose autism, ADHD, or sensory processing disorder?
Occupational therapists cannot diagnose these conditions—that requires assessment by a paediatrician or psychologist. However, Inner West Paediatrics can identify functional difficulties in fine motor and sensory areas and support your child's development regardless of diagnosis. We work alongside other professionals in your child's care team.
Does Inner West Paediatrics accept NDIS funding?
NDIS registration status is not yet confirmed. We recommend contacting the clinic directly to discuss current funding arrangements and payment options. Your child's NDIS planner can also advise on approved providers in your area for early intervention support.
