Early intervention Support at Making Milestones — Welland, SA
Making Milestones in Welland, SA lists services that overlap with paediatric occupational therapy for early intervention.
Services Making Milestones offers for early intervention
Early childhood development relies on strong foundations in how children move, feel, and interact with their environment. Making Milestones supports this through two key service areas. Fine motor development helps children build the hand strength and coordination needed for everyday tasks—threading beads, using scissors, and holding pencils. Our occupational therapists use graded activities tailored to each child's stage, such as playdough manipulation exercises and pincer grip activities with small objects. Sensory processing support helps children understand and respond appropriately to sensory information from their surroundings. Making Milestones incorporates sensory strategies like weighted lap pads during focused activities, controlled exposure to different textures during play, and movement breaks using therapy balls to help children self-regulate. Both services work together to build confidence and independence. Many families access Making Milestones through NDIS funding, which supports eligible children under the 2025–26 scheme. Our team works collaboratively with families and other professionals to identify what each child needs and create meaningful, play-based interventions that fit into daily routines.

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 support for early development?
Signs include difficulty with fine motor tasks (holding utensils, grasping small objects), sensitivity to textures or sounds, coordination challenges, or delayed self-care skills. Making Milestones offers initial consultations to discuss your concerns. An occupational therapist can assess your child's development, though we cannot diagnose conditions like autism or developmental delay—that requires a medical professional.
Can Making Milestones help if my child has sensory sensitivities?
Yes. Our occupational therapists work with children who find certain sensations overwhelming or seek more sensory input. We use graded sensory activities and strategies to help children develop better tolerance and self-regulation. This might include movement activities, texture exploration, or environmental adjustments tailored to your child's needs.
Does NDIS funding cover services at Making Milestones?
Making Milestones is NDIS registered. If your child is eligible and has occupational therapy listed in their plan, NDIS funding can support sessions. We recommend checking your child's plan details and contacting us to discuss how we can work within your allocated supports for the 2025–26 financial year.
