Services Paediatric Potentials Occupational Therapy offers for developmental delay
Developmental delay can affect how children acquire everyday skills, and fine motor development is often a key area of concern. Fine motor skills—like holding a pencil, fastening buttons, or manipulating small objects—are essential for independence in self-care, learning, and play. At Paediatric Potentials Occupational Therapy in Upper Mount Gravatt, our occupational therapists work with children to build these foundational abilities through targeted, play-based interventions. We use strategies such as hand-strengthening activities with therapy putty and tweezers, scissor skills practice with adaptive equipment, and precision tasks like threading beads or completing puzzles. These activities are graded to match each child's current level and gradually increase in complexity. If your child is eligible for NDIS funding in the 2025–26 financial year, Paediatric Potentials Occupational Therapy is registered to support your plan. Our therapists collaborate with families and other professionals to ensure interventions are meaningful and transferable to home and school settings, helping children develop confidence and independence in their daily routines.

Common questions
How do I know if my child has a developmental delay?
Developmental delay is typically identified when a child's skills fall noticeably behind age-related expectations across areas like motor, communication, or self-care abilities. Your GP, early childhood educator, or paediatrician may raise concerns. An occupational therapist can assess your child's fine and gross motor skills, but cannot diagnose conditions like autism or ADHD. A formal diagnosis requires assessment by a paediatrician or developmental specialist.
Can Paediatric Potentials Occupational Therapy help my child with NDIS funding?
Yes. Paediatric Potentials Occupational Therapy is NDIS registered and can support children with registered plans in the 2025–26 financial year. If your child has an approved NDIS plan that includes occupational therapy, we can work with you to deliver services aligned with your plan goals. Contact us to discuss your child's eligibility and how we can help.
What should I expect in a fine motor therapy session?
Sessions are play-based and tailored to your child's interests and needs. Your therapist might use activities like threading, drawing, cutting, or manipulating objects to build hand strength and coordination. We'll also provide strategies and activities for home practice, so you can support your child's development between sessions. Parent involvement is important for progress.
