About the service
About Early Childhood Early Intervention (ECEI) under the NDIS
Early childhood early intervention helps young children with developmental delay or disability, and their families, get the right support as early as possible, because early, well-targeted support makes a significant difference to development and long-term outcomes. Best-practice early intervention takes a whole-of-child, whole-of-family view, building the capacity of families and educators to support the child in natural settings like home, childcare, and the community, where learning really happens.
Supports can combine allied health input (speech pathology, occupational therapy, physiotherapy), key-worker coordination, and practical everyday strategies, with the emphasis on function and participation rather than diagnosis alone. Families often access help early through the early childhood approach. When choosing a provider, look for an evidence-based, family-centred approach that supports your child in everyday settings rather than clinic sessions alone, coaches families and educators, sets and measures functional goals, and coordinates the professionals involved.
