Services Western Kids Health offers for fine motor delay
Western Kids Health provides early intervention services specifically designed to support children experiencing fine motor skills delay. Early intervention focuses on identifying and addressing developmental concerns during the critical early years, when children's brains are most responsive to learning and practice. At Western Kids Health, our occupational therapists work with children to build strength, coordination, and control in their hands and fingers through purposeful, play-based activities. Examples of interventions include threading and bead work to develop pincer grip and hand-eye coordination, scissor skills training using adaptive equipment, and hand strengthening activities such as playdough manipulation and resistance exercises. We also incorporate sensory experiences—like textured materials and varied writing surfaces—to support motor planning and confidence. Early intervention can be funded through the NDIS (2025-26) for eligible children, helping families access these services without significant out-of-pocket costs. Western Kids Health works collaboratively with families to set meaningful goals and monitor progress, ensuring each child receives individualised support tailored to their needs and developmental stage.

About fine motor delay
Fine motor skills are the small, precise movements children use with their hands and fingers for play, self-care, and school. A fine motor skills delay describes when a child is taking longer than expected to develop these skills.

Common questions
How do I know if my child has a fine motor skills delay?
Signs may include difficulty holding pencils or cutlery, trouble fastening buttons or zips, reluctance to draw or write, or clumsiness with small objects. An occupational therapist at Western Kids Health can assess your child's skills and compare them to typical developmental milestones. However, an OT cannot diagnose conditions like autism or developmental coordination disorder—a paediatrician or specialist may be needed for diagnosis.
Can Western Kids Health help if my child is very young?
Yes. Early intervention services are most effective during the early years when development is rapid. Western Kids Health supports children from infancy through early childhood, using play-based activities appropriate to each child's age and interests. Early identification and support can make a significant difference in your child's confidence and independence with everyday tasks.
Will the NDIS cover my child's therapy at Western Kids Health?
If your child is NDIS-eligible, fine motor intervention may be funded as part of your plan. Funding availability depends on your child's individual circumstances and plan approval. We recommend contacting Western Kids Health directly to discuss your child's situation and explore funding options, including private sessions if needed.
