NDIS Early Childhood Supports

Spectra Community Care

How Early Childhood Supports Deliver More

Our NDIS early childhood supports are designed to help children with disabilities and developmental delays (aged up to nine years) build essential skills in everyday environments such as daycare, school, home, and the community. A dedicated child and family team, led by a key worker, partners closely with you to create the positive changes you want for your child and family. Our key workers, often qualified teachers, use their expertise in child development to foster growth in social and emotional skills, physical development, cognitive abilities, and language and communication, along with many other areas that support your child’s overall progress and confidence.

Early Childhood Supports

Our early childhood intervention services support children aged up to nine years in the environments where they learn and play. Led by a dedicated key worker, our child and family team works together to plan and deliver meaningful change for the whole family. We offer support for children at home, school, or within the community, ensuring that care is accessible and consistent across settings. Families also gain access to specialist therapists when needed, along with personalised, family-centred planning and coaching. Our approach focuses on building social, emotional, and language skills, as well as many other developmental areas that help children thrive and reach their full potential.

Eligibility & Funding

Who is eligible and how is it funded?

If your child has an NDIS plan, you can begin accessing early childhood supports with the funding already in your plan. We help families understand how supports fit into their plan and which services to request.

If your child is not yet funded, we can guide you through early childhood pathways and referrals so you can apply for the right supports. We also offer advice on what to include in a plan to secure early intervention funding.

Who is a key worker and how do they help my child and family?

A key worker is your main contact who plans and oversees most of your child’s supports. They coordinate specialists, guide family coaching, and make sure therapy fits your daily life.

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

The model gives consistency and clear coordination. One person oversees the plan, reducing duplication and making therapy easier to follow at home and school.

I only need speech or occupational therapy. Can a key worker still help?

Yes. Your key worker can arrange focused speech or occupational therapy and bring in specialists for short, targeted sessions to reach specific goals.

Can children with autism spectrum disorder access these supports?

Yes. Children with autism and other developmental delays under nine years can access early childhood supports if they meet NDIS eligibility.

What happens during the initial assessment?

The key worker assesses your child’s strengths, routines, and needs, observes interactions in the natural setting, and begins building a Child and Family Support Plan.
