Services National 360 Ballarat offers for early intervention
Early childhood development is a critical period where children build foundational skills in movement, communication, play and self-care. National 360 Ballarat's early intervention service supports children aged 0–6 years by identifying developmental delays and providing targeted therapy to help them reach their milestones. Through play-based activities tailored to each child's needs, occupational therapists work alongside families to strengthen skills across sensory, motor and cognitive areas. Examples of interventions include fine-motor exercises using threading, puzzles and scissor work to develop hand strength and coordination; sensory activities such as messy play with sand, water and textured materials to build body awareness; and structured routines using visual supports to encourage independence in daily tasks like dressing and eating. National 360 Ballarat recognises that early support can make a meaningful difference in a child's development trajectory. Many families access early intervention services through NDIS funding (2025–26 pricing arrangements apply), though funding eligibility varies. An occupational therapist can assess your child's developmental needs and discuss how therapy might support their growth, working collaboratively with your family to embed strategies into everyday 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 early intervention support?
If you've noticed your child is slower to reach developmental milestones—such as sitting, walking, talking, or self-care skills—or if they seem to struggle with coordination, sensory sensitivities or play, an occupational therapy assessment can help. National 360 Ballarat can discuss your concerns and explore whether early intervention might be beneficial. Early assessment is valuable because it allows time to support development during these formative years.
Can occupational therapy diagnose conditions like autism or developmental delay?
Occupational therapists cannot diagnose autism, ADHD or other conditions—that requires assessment by a paediatrician or psychologist. However, an OT can identify developmental delays and functional difficulties, and recommend strategies to support your child's skills and participation. National 360 Ballarat can work alongside other professionals as part of your child's broader support team.
How is early intervention funded, and will NDIS cover my child?
Early intervention can be funded through NDIS if your child meets eligibility criteria, with 2025–26 pricing arrangements applying. Not all children qualify for NDIS support. National 360 Ballarat can discuss funding options with you, including private therapy, and help you understand what might be available for your family's situation.
