About fine motor delay
Fine motor skills are the small, precise movements children use with their hands and fingers for play, self-care, and school. A fine motor skills delay describes when a child is taking longer than expected to develop these skills.

Common questions
How do I know if my child has a fine motor delay?
Signs include difficulty holding pencils or cutlery, trouble with buttons or zips, messy handwriting, or reluctance to participate in drawing or craft activities. An occupational therapist can assess your child's skills and compare them to developmental milestones. However, occupational therapists cannot diagnose conditions like autism or developmental coordination disorder—this requires a medical professional. An initial assessment at Link Health and Community – Oakleigh can help clarify whether fine motor support would be beneficial.
Can NDIS funding cover fine motor therapy at your clinic?
Link Health and Community – Oakleigh can work with families who have NDIS plans that include occupational therapy support. NDIS funding arrangements for 2025–26 vary depending on individual plans and goals. We recommend discussing your child's plan with your NDIS planner or Local Area Coordinator to confirm what therapy is funded. Our team can also help explain how fine motor goals fit within your plan.
What can I do at home to support fine motor development?
Everyday activities are powerful: cooking together (mixing, pouring), playing with construction toys, drawing, threading beads, and practising self-care like dressing and eating. Our therapists at Link Health and Community – Oakleigh provide specific home activity recommendations tailored to your child's needs and interests. Consistency and making activities fun are key—short, playful practice is more effective than forced drills.
