Services Making Milestones offers for developmental delay
Making Milestones lists fine motor support as a service for children with developmental delay. Fine motor skills—the small, coordinated movements of hands and fingers—are often areas where children with developmental delay need targeted practice. According to the clinic's listing, fine motor interventions typically involve structured activities designed to build hand strength, finger dexterity, and coordination needed for everyday tasks like self-feeding, dressing, writing, and play.
Examples of activities that occupational therapists commonly use for fine motor development include threading beads or pegs to strengthen finger isolation and pinch grip, scissor cutting exercises progressing from play dough to paper, and hand-strengthening games using therapy putty or resistance tools. Making Milestones may also incorporate play-based activities such as building with blocks, drawing, or manipulating small objects to develop the precision and control children need as they grow.
Children with developmental delay accessing NDIS funding in 2025-26 may use their plan allocations to support occupational therapy services. Parents considering Making Milestones should note that the clinic is listed as NDIS registered according to its directory snapshot, though this has not been independently verified. An initial assessment with the clinic can help identify whether fine motor support aligns with a child's specific needs and goals.

Common questions
How does occupational therapy for fine motor skills differ from what my child does at school or home?
Occupational therapists use structured, evidence-informed approaches tailored to a child's specific abilities and goals. Making Milestones can assess fine motor development in detail and design targeted activities matched to the child's level, progressing systematically. This differs from general classroom or home practice, which may not address underlying coordination or strength gaps affecting fine motor tasks.
Can Making Milestones help my child if they have been diagnosed with autism or ADHD?
Occupational therapists cannot diagnose autism, ADHD, or sensory processing differences. However, children with these conditions often benefit from fine motor support. Making Milestones can work with children who have these diagnoses to address fine motor challenges. It is best to discuss your child's specific needs and any existing diagnoses during an initial consultation.
How do I access Making Milestones if my child has an NDIS plan?
Making Milestones is listed as NDIS registered according to its directory snapshot. If your child has an NDIS plan that includes funding for occupational therapy, you can contact the clinic to discuss whether their services match your child's plan goals and how to arrange an assessment or treatment sessions.
