NDIS Early Childhood Intervention in Melbourne
NDIS early childhood intervention in Melbourne for children under 9 and their families. We come to you at home, school or kinder, across Greater Melbourne, from Craigieburn and Whittlesea in the north to Frankston and Cranbourne in the south-east, west to Werribee and Melton, and east to Ringwood and Croydon. Our therapists help with goals like play, communication, emotional regulation, self-care and joining in at kinder. We'll coach you to build therapy into daily routines and write your reports.
What is NDIS Early Childhood Intervention?
Early childhood intervention supports children aged 0 to 9 years who have a developmental delay or disability, or who may benefit from early, targeted support to strengthen learning and development. Rather than waiting for challenges to escalate, this early childhood approach supports children in their everyday environments.
We see families across Great Melbourne from Craigieburn and Whittlesea in the north, Frankston and Cranbourne in the south-east, Werribee and Melton in the west, and Ringwood and Croydon in the east.
Using Your Child's NDIS Funding
Early childhood intervention is usually funded from the Capacity Building – Improved Daily Living budget in your child's NDIS plan. If you're not sure what the plan covers, your support coordinator, plan manager or early childhood partner can help.
We charge in line with the NDIS Pricing Arrangements, at $193.99 an hour, and all our fees are on our fees page in plain language. Before therapy starts, you'll get a written service agreement that sets out your child's supports, costs, cancellation terms and billing.
We're a registered NDIS provider, so we work with families whose child's plan is NDIA-managed, plan-managed or self-managed.

Reports For Your Child's Plan Review
Your child's NDIS plan is reviewed regularly, and good evidence makes a difference. Your therapists write progress reports that show how your child is developing, explain why support is still needed, and recommend what should be in the next plan.
Working With Your Support Coordinator
Your support coordinator helps you compare providers, and the choice is always yours. Once you choose BlueRocket, we keep your support coordinator in the loop: when your service agreement is sent and signed, when your therapist is allocated, and as therapy progresses.
How We Support Your Child & Family
BlueRocket therapists work closely with other allied disciplines, so you only need to share your story once. Our team-based approach is tailored to your NDIS plan, providing coordinated, practical support across home, clinic and community settings.
Initial assessment & goal planning
Your clinician will take the time to understand your child’s development, your family’s priorities and any concerns you may have. This includes reviewing all available information, discussing goals and understanding the environments where your child spends time.
Family-centred therapy sessions across settings
We observe your child’s skills and participation through play, interaction and everyday routines, either in person or via telehealth where appropriate. This helps us understand your child's strengths, developmental needs, and how they engage across home, childcare, or early learning settings.
Assessment may consider communication, movement, play, regulation and participation, alongside family routines and existing support.
Specialised, multi-disciplinary support strategies
Intervention supports are delivered by qualified therapists with experience in early childhood and the NDIS. Support focuses on real-world functioning and can include:
- Supporting communication and social interaction
- Building play and early learning skills
- Developing independence in daily routines
- Supporting regulation and behaviour
- Coaching parents and carers with practical strategies
Intervention plans are flexible and can evolve as your child grows and develops.
Review, collaboration & ongoing support
Progress is reviewed regularly to ensure support remains appropriate and effective. We work collaboratively with families, early educators, early childhood partners and other support services to ensure strategies are understood and implemented consistently.
We also support families in navigating transitions, including changes in funding or transitions from early childhood supports to school-aged services.
