Services Posity offers for developmental delay
Posity lists early intervention as a service, which is commonly used to support children with developmental delay. Early intervention occupational therapy typically focuses on building foundational skills during the critical early years when children's brains are most responsive to learning. According to its listing, Posity may work with children across areas such as fine motor development (for example, grasping and hand strength activities needed for self-feeding or pencil control), gross motor coordination (such as balance and movement activities on therapy equipment), and self-care routines (like dressing or toileting skills). Specific interventions might include play-based activities using sensory materials, structured exercises with therapeutic equipment, or guided practice of everyday tasks tailored to each child's developmental stage.
Posity is listed as NDIS registered (self-reported, not independently verified). Families accessing early intervention through NDIS funding in 2025-26 may use their plan allocations to cover occupational therapy sessions aimed at reducing developmental gaps and building independence. Early intervention is most effective when started promptly after developmental concerns are identified, as it can help prevent secondary difficulties and support children to participate more fully in family and community activities. The specific approach and frequency of sessions would depend on each child's individual needs and goals.

Common questions
What age children does Posity support for developmental delay?
Posity lists early intervention services, which typically target younger children in the critical early years. The specific age range accepted would need to be confirmed directly with the clinic. Early intervention is most commonly accessed from birth through to school entry, though this varies by service.
Can occupational therapy diagnose autism, ADHD, or sensory processing difficulties?
Occupational therapists cannot diagnose autism, ADHD, or sensory processing disorder. However, they can assess functional skills and support children identified with developmental delay. Diagnosis requires assessment by a medical doctor or psychologist. Posity's occupational therapists can work with children once a diagnosis or developmental concern has been identified.
Does Posity accept NDIS funding?
Posity is listed as NDIS registered according to its directory listing (self-reported, not independently verified). Families with NDIS plans may be able to use funding for early intervention services. It is recommended to contact Posity directly to confirm current registration status and discuss how NDIS funding can be applied to sessions.
