We support children, adolescents and young people who may experience challenges with learning, behaviour, emotional regulation, social development and everyday life skills. Our developmental education approach is individualised, strengths-based and neuro-affirming, and focuses on supporting children and young people within their everyday environments.
Our developmental educators work closely with parents, carers, educators and other professionals to build practical skills, confidence and participation across home, school and community settings, including during key life transitions.
We also provide developmental education support for adults, focusing on building independence, self-understanding and participation in everyday life. Support may include emotional regulation, executive functioning, routines, social participation, self-advocacy and community engagement.
Adult support is tailored to individual goals and strengths and delivered in a collaborative, respectful and person-centred way.
Our developmental educators support a wide range of developmental and functional areas, including emotional regulation, behaviour support, social communication, executive functioning, routines, independence skills, transitions and self-advocacy.
Support may also include parent education, capacity building, school collaboration and strategy development to support meaningful participation at home, school and in the community.
All support is individualised and guided by each person’s strengths, goals and priorities.
Developmental education supports individuals and families to better understand developmental differences and build skills that support wellbeing, learning and participation in everyday life. By working within real-life environments, developmental educators help develop practical strategies, routines and adaptations that are meaningful and sustainable.
Support may include direct sessions, observation, education, strategy development and collaboration with families, carers and support networks.
