The NeuroJunior team places great importance on parent education to deliver the best care to our paediatric clients. Modelling a creative and flexible approach to therapy, we challenge the stereotypes of children and young people with a disability.
We are committed to fostering great relationships with the child and their family. This means therapy sessions are filled with fun while we work hard toward agreed goals.

Your family, your choice
Our family and child centred approach supports choice.
Children learn best in safe, comfortable and familiar environments. Our team can work with your child in one of our innovative clinics, at home, or your child’s childcare, kinder, school, or a community location such as your local park or pool. We also provide services via Telehealth.
We work with you to set meaningful therapy goals and support you to create positive learning experiences for your child in everyday activities.

For all stages of a child’s development
We provide support programs to help children maximise their potential and engagement from infancy to early adulthood and beyond.
Early childhood supports
We support infants and preschool children, their families, caregivers and educators in early assessment and services in early childhood years. Activities are play based and targeted to encourage the learning and development of the child. The program is reinforced and complemented in family and early childhood settings including playgroups, childcare centres, kindergartens and preschools.
School aged supports
We support young children and their families, caregivers and educators with ongoing assessment and services during primary and early secondary school years. Activities are developmentally appropriate and targeted to the child's mastery of functional skills to enable them to participate meaningfully in everyday activities, including school and leisure pursuits, alongside their peers. The program is reinforced and complemented in educational and recreational settings including schools, parks, pools and gyms.
Young people supports
We support adolescents, young adults and their families, caregivers and educators in ongoing assessment and services during the transition to adult services if required. Activities are developmentally appropriate and functionally based, targeted towards supporting the young person to reach their full potential in daily, weekly and community routines. The program is reinforced and complemented in familial, educational and community settings.
