Services Sydney Child Development Specialists offers for developmental delay
Sydney Child Development Specialists provides occupational therapy support for children experiencing developmental delay across NSW. Developmental delay occurs when a child's skills in areas like movement, communication, social interaction, or self-care develop more slowly than expected. Our occupational therapists work with children to build confidence and independence through tailored activities and strategies. For example, we use fine-motor exercises such as threading, cutting, and hand-strengthening games to support children who struggle with writing or self-feeding. Sensory-based activities—including work with textured materials, balance equipment, and movement games—help children develop body awareness and coordination. We also implement visual supports and structured routines to assist with daily transitions and task completion. Sydney Child Development Specialists can discuss how NDIS funding (2025-26) may support your child's therapy, depending on your plan and goals. Our therapists work collaboratively with families and other professionals to identify practical strategies you can use at home and school, helping your child progress at their own pace.

Common questions
How do I know if my child has developmental delay?
If you've noticed your child is slower to reach milestones like sitting, walking, talking, or managing self-care tasks compared to peers, it's worth discussing with your GP or paediatrician. They can refer you for assessment. Sydney Child Development Specialists can evaluate your child's occupational performance and discuss any concerns, though diagnosis is made by medical professionals.
Can occupational therapy help my child catch up?
Occupational therapy supports children to develop skills and strategies at their own pace. Our therapists at Sydney Child Development Specialists focus on building independence in daily activities, improving movement and coordination, and increasing confidence. Progress varies for each child; we work with families to set realistic, meaningful goals.
Does NDIS cover therapy for developmental delay?
Many children with developmental delay access NDIS support, though eligibility depends on individual circumstances. Sydney Child Development Specialists can discuss funding options with you, including NDIS arrangements for 2025-26. We recommend contacting the NDIS or your local coordinator to understand what may be available for your child.
