How our Perth Early Childhood Supports Deliver More

Our Perth NDIS early childhood supports, also known as early childhood intervention services, help children with disabilities and developmental delay aged up to nine years to build skills wherever they’re needed—whether at daycare, school, home, or in the community.

A dedicated child and family team, led by a key worker, supports you, your child and others in their life to achieve the positive changes you want for your family.

Our key workers, mostly trained teachers, use their knowledge of child development to help your child grow socially, emotionally, physically, cognitively, and in language skills.

The Key Worker Model: Supporting Your Child’s Development

Your key worker plans and oversees your child’s services. As your main therapist and day-to-day contact, they:

Deliver most of your child’s therapy in the places your child spends their time, like home, daycare, school or in the community
Coordinate services from speech pathologists, occupational therapists, physiotherapists, behaviour support practitioners and habit coaches
Link you with community services to support your child’s development.

Supporting Positive Life Changes

As a registered NDIS provider, your key worker can help your child and family build new skills including:

Language and communication skills to enable your child to better express themselves, understand others, and make friends
Playing in ways that enhance cognitive development and opportunities for learning
Personal care such as cleaning teeth, toileting, washing and dressing independently
Sleep hygiene and routines for mental and physical health for your child
Using assistive technology to perform tasks more safely, securely, and independently.

Navigating transitions such as starting daycare or school, moving home, and changes in family dynamics

Frequently Asked Questions about Early Childhood Supports in Perth

How will the key worker model benefit my child and family?

As degree-qualified teachers, our key workers use their specialised training in child development and learning to design and implement strategies across developmental areas which include social, emotional, physical, cognitive and language. They do this in a way that engages your family and other important people in your child’s life such as their teacher.

There are some specialised areas that only a speech pathologist, physiotherapist or occupational therapist can assess and provide advice on. The key worker will link in these team members where this support is required.

I only need occupational therapy or speech therapy for my child, can a key worker help with this?

As degree-qualified teachers, our key workers use their specialised training in child development and learning to design and implement strategies to support your child’s development. This includes activities to improve their fine motor skills, language development or strategies to help with their sensory processing issues. These strategies can also be used by other members of your child’s team, such as speech pathologists, occupational therapists and physiotherapists.

Key workers can deliver more than an individual registered occupational therapist, speech pathologist or physiotherapist as they can implement their own strategies and activities as well as those designed by the team of therapists.
