Services Therapy Care offers for developmental delay

Developmental delay can affect how children acquire skills across multiple areas, including fine motor control—the ability to use small hand and finger movements for tasks like writing, drawing, and self-care. Therapy Care supports children experiencing developmental delay through targeted fine motor interventions tailored to each child's needs and pace. Our occupational therapists work with children on activities such as threading beads and using tweezers to pick up small objects, which build hand strength and coordination. We also incorporate play-based activities like playdough manipulation and scissor skills practice to make learning engaging. Therapy Care recognises that children develop at different rates, and our approach focuses on building confidence alongside capability. If your child may be eligible for NDIS funding in the 2025–26 financial year, we can discuss how therapy costs might be covered through your plan. While occupational therapy cannot diagnose conditions such as autism or ADHD, it can identify and address the functional difficulties children experience, helping them participate more fully in everyday activities at home and school. Our team works collaboratively with families and other professionals to support your child's development.

About developmental delay

Developmental delay describes when a child has not yet reached one or more developmental milestones in the expected timeframe. It is a description, not a single diagnosis.

Common questions

How do I know if my child has developmental delay?

Developmental delay means a child is not reaching typical milestones for their age in areas like motor skills, communication, or self-care. An occupational therapist can assess your child's current abilities and compare them to expected developmental stages. However, diagnosis of underlying conditions requires a medical professional. If you have concerns, your GP or early childhood educator can provide guidance on whether an assessment would be helpful.

Can Therapy Care help my child with fine motor skills?

Yes. Fine motor skills—like holding a pencil, fastening buttons, or using cutlery—are a key focus at Therapy Care. Our occupational therapists use play-based activities and structured exercises to strengthen hand muscles and improve coordination. Treatment is individualised based on your child's age, interests, and specific needs.

Does Therapy Care accept NDIS funding?

NDIS registration status for Therapy Care has not been confirmed. We recommend contacting the clinic directly to discuss funding options and whether they can support NDIS plans. If your child has an approved plan, our team can advise on how therapy costs may be managed for the 2025–26 financial year.
