Supporting a child’s development is about recognising their strengths, celebrating progress, and encouraging new skills as they grow. At Mind & Body Support, we provide personalised support that helps children build confidence, explore their abilities, and participate in everyday life in ways that are meaningful to them.
We support children and young people with global developmental delay across Melbourne through a range of NDIS services, including personal training, educational support, life skills development, community access, social and recreational support, in-home assistance, and therapy support. Every service is tailored to each child’s individual strengths, interests, and goals, with support that evolves as they grow and develop.
Every child develops skills at different rates, and every small achievement is worth celebrating. Consistent, encouraging support across everyday activities can help children practice new skills, build confidence, and become more comfortable trying new experiences over time.
We understand that a child’s needs and goals may change as they grow. That’s why we regularly review support with families, adapting activities and goals to reflect each child’s progress, interests, and stage of development.
Children often learn best when they’re engaged, having fun, and feeling supported. Our team uses activities that are enjoyable, age-appropriate, and tailored to each child’s interests.
Depending on their goals, support may include:
By working closely with families, we aim to create support that feels familiar, practical, and meaningful for everyone involved.
For people with Global Developmental Delay, movement can be a positive way to build strength, coordination, confidence and overall wellbeing. Our fitness and wellness programs are adapted to each participant’s abilities, interests and individual goals.Activities may include gym sessions, walking, strength and mobility exercises, outdoor activities or community-based fitness. We focus on making movement enjoyable and achievable, helping participants build confidence, stay active and develop healthy routines at their own pace.
Learning looks different for every child. Our Educational Support services help children build confidence with foundational learning skills, establish positive study habits where appropriate, and develop strategies that support participation in school and everyday learning experiences.
Everyday skills develop over time through practice and encouragement. Our Life Skills and Capacity Building services support children to build communication skills, confidence with everyday routines, social interaction, personal organisation, and age-appropriate independence, always working towards goals that are meaningful for the child and their family.
Supporting a child's development often means supporting the whole family. Our In-Home Support services provide practical assistance that fits into everyday family life, helping children practise routines in familiar environments while providing families with consistent, personalised support that reflects their goals and priorities.
Our Personal Training sessions use fun, engaging movement to help children build gross motor skills, coordination, balance, strength, and confidence. Activities are tailored to each child's abilities and interests, making physical activity an enjoyable part of their routine.
