- Ages 0–6 Years
Early intervention to help children thrive
Support for children aged 0–6 during the most important developmental years. Play-based therapy that builds skills, confidence, and connection.
Why the early years matter
The first six years are the foundation for everything that follows, learning, relationships, independence, and wellbeing.
90% of brain development happens before age 5
The early years are the most critical window for building neural pathways that support learning, communication, and behaviour.
Early support leads to better outcomes
Children who receive early intervention are more likely to attend mainstream school, build friendships, and develop independence.
Families are part of the team
We work with parents and carers to build strategies that continue at home, because therapy doesn’t stop at the end of a session.
What is early intervention?
Early intervention means providing therapy and support to young children as early as possible, before challenges become entrenched. It’s about giving children the tools they need during the years when their brains are most receptive to learning.

Montessori-aligned early intervention
“Having the therapist come to our daughter’s daycare was a game-changer. She didn’t even realise it was therapy, she thought she was just playing. And the progress has been incredible.”
