Developmental Education is a type of therapy that builds the capacity of participants for example improving communication, social skills, and self-care skills.

Developmental Educators consider the whole person and their sociocultural context. Practice centres on the lived experience, needs, goals and aspirations of people with disability.

​

Developmental Educator Services include:​

• ​Skill Development

  • life skills

  • self-care

  • transition planning

  • goal setting

• Developmental assessments

Early intervention specialist teachers work alongside the adults in a child’s life, such as parents, teachers, and health specialists, to better understand the child’s strengths and interests, behaviour, current presentation, and support needs.

​

A NDIS key worker is an early childhood intervention professional who acts as the key point of contact for young children living with developmental delay, disability and autism, and their families.

​

Early Intervention Groups can support children to develop their skills in a non-threatening environment. 

We can provide a partial Functional Capacity Assessment that looks at specific domains, this is usually around 8 to 10 pages long and takes 6 or 7 hours, or a Full Capacity Assessment that is usually 15 to 20 pages and takes 10 - 14 hours.  Please note that we are unable to recommend specific equipment or modifications.
