🌟 NDIS Services for Children – Early Intervention and Therapy Explained
Early intervention is one of the most important parts of the NDIS when it comes to supporting children with developmental delays or disabilities. At OpenHearted Support, we are proud to offer specialised therapy services under the NDIS to help children reach their full potential in a supportive and nurturing environment.

πŸ‘Ά What Is Early Intervention?

Early Intervention refers to support provided as early as possible in a child's life when there are signs of delay in development – such as challenges in communication, movement, learning, or socialising.

Through the NDIS, children under the age of 7 can access Early Childhood Early Intervention (ECEI) supports. These services aim to build foundational skills early, which can lead to lifelong benefits.

At OpenHearted Support, we work closely with families, carers, and support coordinators to deliver therapies that are child-focused and goal-driven.
