Our approach

The Whole Child Allied Health uses a strengths-based approach that focuses on what each child can do, building upon their existing skills to help them achieve their goals. Sessions are delivered in mobile, clinic-based and online formats, with mobile therapy taking place in the child's natural everyday environment—such as kindy, school or workplace—to support learning and skill generalisation. Fun and engagement are central to all work, and families are coached and supported to become independent and not reliant on ongoing therapy. Developmental Educators work on building functional, social and daily living skills while increasing independence, confidence, and social inclusion. The team is described as small but dedicated to working together to achieve big goals and make meaningful differences in the lives of the families they support.

Working with families

Families are coached and supported to achieve their goals and are empowered with tools and knowledge to feel confident in their child's development. Parent Capacity Building and Coaching is available by request to support families and bring more positivity into the home. The team also uses mobile therapy to empower educators and staff in the child's everyday settings to continue supporting goals in their day-to-day life.

Meet the team

The team is comprised of Developmental Educators (Allied Health Professionals, often referred to as DEs), led by Lee-Anne, a Developmental Educator with qualifications in Education (MDisStu: MEd(SpeEd)). The team focuses on building functional, social and daily living skills, increasing independence and confidence, and enhancing social inclusion, identity and sense of self.
