Meet the Therapy Team

Does your child have an NDIS Early Childhood Transdisciplinary Package?

We provide services using the transdisciplinary model. We will help you choose a key worker who will coordinate therapy and to link you to the therapy team. We will help you plan how this will work best for your family in a way that suits your child’s/children’s individual goals and needs.

This diagram illustrates how we apply this approach when working with you. The model involves a key worker - the main person who supports the individual or family to achieve their goals. Family and friends are valued members of the team.
 

You choose what’s right for you

• We are passionate about working together to give families choice and control over the services they receive.
• We will work with you to build a team around your child to ensure the right people are there at the right time.

You choose where we support you

We understand it is important for children to have support where they need it most. We can provide services:

• at family and friend’s homes
• at day care, playgroup, preschool, school,
• in the community (e.g. park, beach, pool, shops, library) and
• at Ability Options sites throughout NSW.

We work with you to build your skills and those of the people most important to you. This includes informal supports such as family, friends and other people in your community.
