Developmental delay Support at LEAP Centre — Across NSW
LEAP Centre in Across NSW lists services that overlap with paediatric occupational therapy for developmental delay.
Services LEAP Centre offers for developmental delay
Developmental delay can affect how children acquire skills across different areas, including fine motor abilities like holding a pencil, using scissors, or fastening buttons. LEAP Centre supports children experiencing developmental delay through targeted fine motor intervention tailored to each child's needs and goals. Our occupational therapists work with children on activities such as threading beads and manipulating small objects to build hand strength and coordination, practising pencil grip and pre-writing patterns to prepare for writing, and engaging in play-based tasks like playdough manipulation and puzzle completion. These interventions are designed to help children develop the foundational skills needed for everyday activities and school participation. LEAP Centre is registered with the NDIS, which means families may be able to access funding for occupational therapy services under the 2025-26 funding arrangements, depending on their child's plan. Our approach recognises that each child develops at their own pace, and we work collaboratively with families and other professionals to support your child's progress in fine motor skills and overall development.

About developmental delay
Developmental delay describes when a child has not yet reached one or more developmental milestones in the expected timeframe. It is a description, not a single diagnosis.

Common questions
How do I know if my child needs fine motor support?
Signs may include difficulty holding pencils or cutlery, trouble with buttons or zips, reluctance to draw or write, or clumsiness with small objects. If you're concerned about your child's development, LEAP Centre can conduct an assessment to identify areas where occupational therapy might help. An OT assessment is not a diagnosis but helps guide support.
Can occupational therapy diagnose developmental conditions like autism or ADHD?
No, occupational therapists cannot diagnose autism, ADHD, or sensory processing disorder. However, LEAP Centre can assess how developmental delay affects your child's daily functioning and fine motor skills, then provide targeted support. A paediatrician or specialist can provide formal diagnosis if needed.
How can NDIS funding help us access services at LEAP Centre?
If your child has an approved NDIS plan, occupational therapy services may be funded under your plan's supports. LEAP Centre is NDIS registered, so families can use their plan funding for sessions. Contact LEAP Centre directly to discuss how your specific plan can support your child's therapy.
