Fine motor delay Support at Little Souls Occupational Therapy — Across QLD
Little Souls Occupational Therapy in Across QLD lists services that overlap with paediatric occupational therapy for fine motor delay.
Services Little Souls Occupational Therapy offers for fine motor delay
Fine motor skills—such as holding a pencil, fastening buttons, or using scissors—are essential for school readiness and everyday independence. Little Souls Occupational Therapy offers early intervention services specifically designed to support children experiencing fine motor delay across Queensland. Early intervention is most effective when started as soon as a delay is identified, helping children develop strength, coordination, and control in their hands and fingers. During sessions at Little Souls Occupational Therapy, children engage in purposeful, play-based activities tailored to their needs. Examples include threading beads and small objects to build finger strength and dexterity, using adaptive pencil grips and writing tools to establish correct hand positioning, and manipulating playdough or resistance materials to develop hand muscle tone. The occupational therapist works collaboratively with families to embed these strategies into daily routines at home. Early intervention can be funded through the NDIS (2025–26) if your child is eligible; Little Souls can discuss funding options during your initial consultation. Starting therapy early gives children the best foundation for academic and social participation.

About fine motor delay

Common questions
How do I know if my child has a fine motor delay?
Signs include difficulty holding pencils or cutlery, struggling with buttons or zips, poor pencil control, or reluctance to engage in drawing or writing tasks. An occupational therapist can assess your child's skills and compare them to developmental milestones. However, an OT cannot diagnose conditions like dyspraxia or developmental coordination disorder—a paediatrician or specialist may be needed for diagnosis.
What should I expect during the first appointment at Little Souls Occupational Therapy?
The occupational therapist will observe your child at play, ask about their developmental history and daily routines, and assess their fine motor abilities. They'll discuss your concerns and goals, then create a personalised therapy plan. Sessions are play-based and child-led, making them engaging and fun while targeting specific skills.
Can NDIS funding cover therapy for fine motor delay?
If your child is NDIS-eligible, fine motor therapy may be funded as part of early intervention supports. Little Souls Occupational Therapy can discuss your funding options and eligibility during consultation. Costs and support availability vary based on individual NDIS plans for 2025–26.
