Megan and Belinda are highly experienced Paediatric Occupational Therapists offering Early Developmental supports. We work in close partnership with parents and educators to support meaningful understanding and confidence in supporting early relational needs, emotional and arousal regulation, sensory processing, fine and gross motor, self-care, and play skill development in everyday routines and settings. Megan and Belinda prioritise meaningful, safe, and attuned relationships to build knowledge and confidence in understanding needs, and providing responsive supports to facilitate developmental progress that reduces barriers to participation and engagement. ECEC Educators are supported to experience confidence and clarity in observing and flexibly responding to broad and diverse needs in advance of recognised developmental delay or disability.

All-abilities inclusive, culturally safe and responsive, and neurodiverse affirming practices are centralised in our work with children, parents, and educators.

• Deepened understanding of early relational health as the foundation for emotional, physical, cognitive and social development

Supports are flexibly designed in response to the specific needs of the ECEC centre, based on specific site and community needs, and funding capacity of the site. Support is typically delivered in-person, but also can be delivered online or via a hybrid model.

Costs are calculated at $280-$300 per hour depending on the type of support. In-person time (including online delivery), as well as any necessary admin/preparation time, is charged at this hourly rate. If travel is required, this will be charged at $195 per hour, in addition to a per km fee.
