Early Intervention SupportOur Early Intervention Specialist Services support the child to participate in daily routines and engagement. We work with families in their home, and at their child’s early childhood centre. We can also help with Transition to School , including support in looking at schooling options and applications completed when ongoing needs indicate eligibility.
Our Services
We provide a diverse range of services, continually evolving to meet the needs of the community, the diverse needs of the children and whaanau choosing to access our support and on the criteria of our funders.
Not all children receive all services we offer, rather we work with families to select the best options for their child based on individual needs.
Child Development ServicesWe provide individual Child Development therapy sessions for you and your child (1:1) based on your ability to access our centre and the child’s needs. Through a range of therapy and specialist input, we support tamariki and whaanau with the knowledge and practical skills to support their child across all environments.
Specialised ECE classesWana Tamariki also offers a licenced Early Childhood Centre. Our specialised classes extend and encourage a child’s ability to be independent, socialise and enjoy play with peers. It is a beneficial learning environment for children with mild to moderate needs who may have missed earlier intervention and are behind in achieving developmental milestones.
