Therapy Pro for Kids – A Team Around the Child Approach
The Therapy Pro for Kids team is a three-time winner of the Australian Disability Services Award for Best Early Intervention Program, which brings us so much joy and pride.
Kids are at the heart of everything our paediatric therapists do. Our team of hugely experienced clinicians design and deliver their support based on a “team around the child” approach.
As kids grow, their needs evolve. They might start with occupational therapy and later require speech and language pathology support, or maybe some psychology and positive behaviour strategies. But the real foundation and constant in their life is their family and when the family and support team place the child’s development at the centre, we find that therapeutic strategies are far more successful.
Our team of highly-skilled therapists provide support across assessments, reports, therapy planning, sourcing the right equipment, supporting your child through times of change and transition (such as starting daycare or school), upskilling parents and carers.

Whatever season your family is in, we are here to provide grounded, personal support!
The research is clear: children with additional needs often benefit from a coordinated care approach that is consistent and seamless. Truly coordinated care requires the people you choose to share your story with to understand your child and their needs, to carry sensitivity to the way your family operates, and to know what matters to you.
We offer a complete Team Around the Child approach. We have got you covered with a wide range of experienced, friendly practitioners who bring a wealth of experience.
At Therapy Pro for Kids, we are all about streamlined communication. This has a direct impact on the quality of rapport our therapists can build with your child, making it easier to build meaningful, enjoyable relationships within a support framework.
Our priority is creating space in your relationship with your daughter, son, or special little person to enjoy spending time together, engaging in fun activities which just so happen to have therapeutic benefits and outcomes.
We offer flexibility on the depth and scope of reporting, only using formal assessment tools when they are clinically appropriate. We strive to ensure these reports represent the areas where your child would benefit from extra time and attention, while also clearly describing their unique strengths, passions and interests.
While we do indeed carry out assessments and write reports, we are just as invested in spending the time necessary to get to know your child, how your family works, and who else is in your support community. We use this to build a coordinated and seamless support system for your child and your family.
Every time a family trusts us to be their therapist, Key Worker, or therapy team, we get a rush of excitement. We know what a privilege it is to be trusted in those roles.
We genuinely love to spend time with your child, playing and laughing, sharing our thoughts and experiences with you in order to develop new skills and behaviours. We are thrilled to educate parents and carers about how to support your child in becoming the best version of themselves.
Specific Support
If you only need to access one of Therapy Pro for Kids’ disciplines, such as speech, occupational therapy, social work or psychology, we are here to provide specific support.
2+ Therapists
Whether you need a mixture of an occupational therapist, speech pathologist, psychologist, social worker, or any other combination, we are ready to help.
We can put together just the right team of therapists to match the needs of your child and their interests. Our holistic, coordinated care model means we look after all of the background work necessary.
Streamlined Support
Many families find that streamlining therapy services with one primary therapist delivering support is the best fit for their needs.
In this model, you’re supported by a team, but you only need to connect with one of the therapists (the Key Worker).
They are responsible for coordinating your therapy and implementing those therapeutic strategies within your home and everyday environments.

This first session is a concentrated opportunity for you to get a sense of who we are, how we work, and for us to meet you and your child.
During this time together, we’ll ask for information necessary to provide the best possible support services to your child.
This includes any relevant history, current interests and strengths, areas of concern or worry, identifying what’s important to your child, and any skills or behaviours they’d like to learn.
Take a look at our First Meeting guide to learn more.
Our first priority after receiving your referral is getting to know who you are, building familiarity so you and your family can get comfortable with our team.
We kick this off with our First Family Meeting. Here, you’ll meet a couple of our team members, and together, they’ll get to know more about your child, family, your goals, and your support preferences.
After this meeting, we develop a ‘how we can help’ response that’s entirely tailored to your needs, providing a tailored plan for your child that includes integrated resources, goals and a support plan
