Services Tightrope Learning offers for developmental delay
Developmental delay can affect how children acquire skills across different areas, including fine motor control. Fine motor skills—like grasping, pinching, and hand-eye coordination—are foundational for writing, self-care, and play. At Tightrope Learning, our occupational therapists work with children to build these essential skills through tailored activities and practice. Examples of interventions might include threading activities to strengthen finger control, scissor skills training to develop hand strength and coordination, or play-based tasks like building with blocks or manipulating playdough to improve dexterity. We also incorporate visual supports and graded challenges to help children progress at their own pace. Many families access Tightrope Learning's services through NDIS funding (2025-26), which can cover occupational therapy support for eligible children. Our clinic takes an individualised approach, recognising that each child's developmental journey is unique. We work collaboratively with families and other professionals to support your child's growth and independence in everyday activities.

Common questions
How do I know if my child has developmental delay?
Developmental delay is identified when children are not meeting expected milestones in areas like motor skills, communication, or self-care compared to peers their age. An occupational therapist can assess your child's skills and discuss any concerns, though diagnosis requires input from other professionals. If you're worried about your child's development, speaking with your GP or contacting Tightrope Learning for an initial discussion is a good first step.
Will occupational therapy help my child catch up to their peers?
Occupational therapy supports children in developing skills and strategies to participate more independently in daily activities. Progress varies for each child depending on their individual needs and circumstances. Tightrope Learning focuses on meaningful, functional improvements rather than guarantees. Regular communication with your therapist helps track progress and adjust approaches as needed.
Can I access Tightrope Learning through NDIS?
Many families use NDIS funding to access occupational therapy services. Eligibility and funding arrangements depend on your child's NDIS plan. We recommend contacting Tightrope Learning directly to discuss your situation and how we might support your child. Our team can provide information about funding options and how to proceed.
