An organisation or professional who works with you if you have a child younger than 7 years with developmental delay, developmental concerns or disability. An early childhood partner helps you to find and use community supports and services. If your child is younger than 6 years, the early childhood partner can organise early supports for your child. The early childhood partner can also help you to request access to the NDIS if necessary. If your child becomes an NDIS participant, the early childhood partner will help you to develop an NDIS plan and work with the NDIS.
