Services The Speech & OT Centre offers for fine motor delay
The Speech & OT Centre lists fine motor skills support as part of its service offerings for children in NSW. Fine motor delay refers to difficulties with small, controlled hand and finger movements needed for tasks like writing, fastening buttons, using cutlery, and manipulating small objects. According to its listing, the clinic addresses these areas through targeted activities and interventions.
Fine motor work typically involves structured practice with everyday tasks and play-based activities. The Speech & OT Centre may incorporate activities such as threading beads or pegs to build finger strength and coordination, scissor skills practice during craft activities, and handwriting or pre-writing exercises using pencil grip tools and adapted writing implements. Therapists often use sensory materials like playdough or textured objects to develop hand awareness and muscle control. These interventions are designed to build the fine motor foundations children need for school readiness and daily independence.
For families with NDIS plans, funding may be available to support occupational therapy services under the 2025-26 funding arrangements, though The Speech & OT Centre's NDIS registration status has not been confirmed in the current directory snapshot. Parents considering this clinic should verify registration and funding eligibility directly with the service.

Common questions
How do occupational therapists assess fine motor delay?
Occupational therapists typically observe how a child performs everyday tasks like holding a pencil, using scissors, fastening buttons, and manipulating small objects. They may use standardised assessments to measure hand strength, coordination, and control. The Speech & OT Centre would conduct an initial assessment to understand the child's specific difficulties and strengths before recommending a therapy plan.
Can fine motor delay be related to autism or ADHD?
Fine motor difficulties can occur alongside autism, ADHD, or other conditions, but occupational therapists cannot diagnose these conditions. An OT can identify fine motor delays and work to improve skills, but diagnosis requires assessment by a paediatrician or psychologist. The Speech & OT Centre can support fine motor development regardless of underlying causes.
Does the clinic accept NDIS funding?
The Speech & OT Centre's NDIS registration status has not been confirmed in the current directory snapshot. Parents should contact the clinic directly to ask about NDIS eligibility, whether they are registered providers, and what funding arrangements are available for the 2025-26 financial year.
