Living with a disability shouldn't impact your child's love for life. Our support services therefore help children with disabilities and their families live life to the fullest, putting no limits on their curiosity or excitement.
Trying to balance work commitments, household responsibilities, and your child's needs can be tough. Our disability services help to reduce some of these pressures by assisting with your child's daily care, providing some respite for busy parents.
Within early childhood, social situations are particularly daunting for any kid, but particularly for those with a disability. Autism can make empathising and interacting with others especially difficult, but our care facilitators are committed to helping children overcome these obstacles.
Early intervention can make life much easier for children with disabilities, helping them to live independently and become confident in who they are.
We understand that being responsible for a child with a disability can be hard. Our carers can provide the break you need to get back on track.
Our disability service providers lead by example, guiding your child in learning the key skills for their future life and successful career.

We answered your top 4 questions regarding children and young people with disability. For an overview of our common queries, check out our comprehensive list of frequently asked questions.
A child is considered to have a disability if they have a medically determinable physical or mental impairment. This impairment may cause mild or severe functional limitations, ranging from trouble walking to difficulties with social communication and interacting with other children.
The most common disability that may impact a child's development is intellectual disability. This refers to children who encounter difficulty learning at the expected level, taking care of themselves, and communicating their wants and needs. Other common disabilities include cerebral palsy and autism spectrum disorder.
Although rewarding, caring for children with disabilities can be tiring. Due to their child's special needs, families may struggle to find sufficient time and resources for self-care. That's where disability services come in, providing an early intervention that allows parents and carers some respite to refuel.
There are differences in the needs and characteristics of every child with a disability, meaning that the way that you support one will be different to another. However, one common principle is to approach challenges together from a calm, optimistic perspective. Educating yourself on your child's specific requirements is important, as well as seeking support from disability programs.
