Developmental delay Support at The Little OT Co — Across QLD
The Little OT Co in Across QLD lists services that overlap with paediatric occupational therapy for developmental delay.
Services The Little OT Co offers for developmental delay
The Little OT Co supports children with developmental delay through targeted early intervention and fine motor services designed to build foundational skills. Early intervention is crucial during the preschool years, as this is when children develop the abilities needed for everyday activities like self-care, play, and learning. Our occupational therapists work with children on activities such as threading beads and using scissors to strengthen hand muscles, practising bilateral coordination exercises like climbing and crossing the midline, and engaging in play-based activities that encourage problem-solving and motor planning. Fine motor therapy at The Little OT Co focuses on the small hand movements required for writing, dressing, and eating, using strategies like hand strengthening games and adaptive utensil practice. Early intervention services can be funded through the NDIS (2025-26 pricing arrangements), and families are encouraged to explore their eligibility. While occupational therapy addresses functional development, it's important to note that OTs cannot diagnose conditions like autism, ADHD, or sensory processing difficulties—these require medical assessment. Our clinic takes a collaborative approach, working alongside families and other professionals to support each child's unique developmental journey.

About developmental delay

Common questions
How do I know if my child needs occupational therapy for developmental delay?
If your child is slower than peers in reaching milestones like sitting, walking, or using utensils, or struggles with activities like dressing or fine motor tasks, an occupational therapy assessment can help identify areas of need. The Little OT Co can discuss your concerns and determine whether therapy would be beneficial. Early assessment is valuable, as early intervention often leads to better outcomes.
Can occupational therapy help my child catch up to their peers?
Occupational therapy focuses on building functional skills and independence in daily activities. Through targeted practice and strategies, many children make significant progress. However, the pace and extent of progress varies for each child. The Little OT Co will work with you to set realistic goals and monitor your child's development over time.
How is occupational therapy funded, and can we access it through the NDIS?
Many families access occupational therapy through NDIS funding (2025-26 pricing arrangements), which can cover early intervention services for eligible children. The Little OT Co can discuss funding options with you, including NDIS pathways and private payment. We recommend checking your eligibility and discussing costs during your initial consultation.
