Services Making Milestones offers for fine motor delay

Fine motor work typically includes activities designed to build hand strength, finger dexterity, and hand-eye coordination. Common examples of interventions that occupational therapists use for this condition include threading activities (such as beading or lacing), scissor skills practice with graded difficulty, and pencil grip development through play-based exercises. Making Milestones may also incorporate hand strengthening activities using therapy putty, tweezers for picking up small objects, and pre-writing patterns to prepare children for formal writing.

Common questions
How long does it typically take to see improvement in fine motor skills with occupational therapy?
Progress varies depending on the child's age, the severity of delay, and consistency of practice. Some children show noticeable changes within 4–8 weeks of regular sessions, while others may take longer. Making Milestones can discuss expected timelines during an initial consultation. Improvement is often supported by practising activities at home between sessions.
Can occupational therapy help if my child's fine motor delay is related to autism or ADHD?
Occupational therapists can support fine motor skills regardless of underlying diagnosis. However, an occupational therapist cannot diagnose autism, ADHD, or other conditions. If you suspect your child has one of these conditions, a medical professional or psychologist should conduct assessment. Making Milestones can work alongside other supports your child receives.
Does Making Milestones bulk-bill or accept NDIS plans?
Making Milestones is listed as NDIS registered according to its directory listing, though independent verification is not available. Contact the clinic directly to confirm current fees, payment options, bulk-billing arrangements, and whether your child's NDIS plan can be used. Availability and terms may vary.
