For children younger than 9:
- contact an early childhood partner in your local area.
In some areas, such as remote and very remote areas of NSW, NT, QLD, SA & WA we do not have early childhood partners to deliver our early childhood approach.
If you live in an area that doesn’t have an early childhood partner, and you have concerns about your child’s development or disability you should first speak with your doctor, child health nurse, early childhood educator or other health professional.
- speak with your doctor, child health nurse, remote community connector, early childhood educator or other health professional
- contact your nearest NDIS office. Visit the Contact Us page or call us on 1800 800 110 for further information
- email us at [email protected] or contact us by using webchat.
We will work with you to connect you and your child to the NDIS or to supports in your community.
The NDIS will cover the cost of providing supports to you and your child under the early childhood approach, where applicable.
