24.01.2022 The government plans to cut the Mental Health Care Plan from a maximum 18 rebated sessions to a max of 10 rebated sessions (for proffessional services). Many families acessing Let's Play use this medicare plan to subidise fees for much needed therapy for their child. A concerned parent is circulating a petition, please show your support by submitting your details https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/NoCutsToMentalHealth

24.01.2022 Let's Play Developmental Therapy is a Brisbane based private practice specialising in working with young children diagnosed with an Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), and associated sensory processing challenges. The practice takes a social-emotional and play-based approach to therapy, using the DIR/Floortime model in our fully equipped sensory/play gym. We are looking to recruit a part-time or full-time OCCUPATIONAL THERAPIST in the coming months. We are looking for someone who... will enthusiastically embrace the DIR/Floortime model. We will offer a competitive salary commensurate with experience ($50-75K FTE), and allocate a yearly professional development budget. Previous experience in paediatric occupational therapy with children diagnosed with an ASD is essential. A minimum of two years mental health experience is also required, as the clinic delivers services for the Medicare 'Better Access to Mental Health' package. Finally, experience in practicing DIR/Floortime, or other play-based therapy or sensory-motor therapy would be an advantage. If you are interested in working with us, we invite you to submit an expression of interest, including a resume or CV, to: Email: [email protected] Post: PO Box 924, North Lakes QLD 4509 For full details regarding our clinic and the position on offer, please visit our website at www.letsplaytherapy.com.au.

22.01.2022 Let's Play Developmental Therapy will temporarily be closing for the first part of 2019 as we move from Brisbane to the Sunshine Coast. Thank you to all of the Brisbane families that have allowed us to share their journey and we look forward to helping many more families on the Sunshine Coast in the future.

22.01.2022 The walls are up, the paint is dry, and the reception is kitted out. Just awaiting some carpet and the last couple of pieces of equipment and we will be ready to deliver therapy. Almost there!!! Jason & Kylie

21.01.2022 CLINIC RE-OPENING. I am very excited to announce that I have now returned from maternity leave and have re-opened my play based Occupational Therapy clinic. The practice is located in North Lakes. Hours of operation are Monday and Tuesdays 10 am to 2 pm (school term). I work with children aged 0 months to 8 years who present with social and emotional challenges, regulation and organisational difficulties, food sensitivities and selectivity, and functional skill challenges including handwriting, dressing, toileting, and executing daily routines. One of my specialties is DIR Floortime and working with children diagnosed with an Autism Spectrum Disorder and/or Sensory Processing Disorders. Please see my website www.letsplaytherapy.com.au for further information or contact me on 0491 031 316 or [email protected]

18.01.2022 Great news! Let's Play Developmental Therapy is now approved to be a provider for the Helping Children With Autism Strategy (HCWA) which is a federal government initiative through the Department of Families, Housing, Community Services & Indigenous Affairs (FaHCSIA).

18.01.2022 Very sadly, most people probably won't copy and paste this. Will you do it and leave it on your status for at least an hour? April is Autism Awareness Month and it's Special Education week, and this is in HONOR of all the children who need a little extra help, patience & understanding.

17.01.2022 Dyspraxia a personal perspective This video describes dyspraxia from a personal perspective, it’s 8 minute but worth the watch. Ellie explains her experience growing up with dyspraxia. It’s fabulous to hear her say she’s, Dyspraxic and fantastic! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cugRkzeujB0&feature=youtu.be

17.01.2022 Welcomed our first two clients today to the Pelican Waters clinic!

16.01.2022 We have taken possession of our new premises! We can finally release that the clinic is centrally located on Sandgate Road in Clayfield (see here). We will now be very busy for the next two weeks setting up the partitions and equipment. Not long now until we can open the doors!

16.01.2022 http://shopau.sensorytools.net/ Hi everyone, Some of the families attending Let's Play have been looking for crash mats/cushions for their homes. The above website has small & large crash mats on sale for $7 & $10 respectively. This is an Australian site, so postage is relatively cheap. You will have to fill these mats with foam or bean bag beans. You can sometimes get foam from reverse garbage in west end

15.01.2022 Looked at a place today that is a strong potential premises for us to lease. More details to come shortly .... Kylie

10.01.2022 We are progressing! We met with the builder on Tuesday, and he is in the process of designing the apparatus from which to hang the swings and stretchies. Once that is finalised, we should be able to formally accept the lease and start the fit out. Jason & Kylie

08.01.2022 This you tube channel popped up on my news feed. It might not resonate with everybody but for those that are interested in hearing other people’s journey with autism then here is one families story. https://www.youtube.com/c/ComingHometoAutism

01.01.2022 This Pyramid of Learning is a fabulous visual showing the important foundational skills needed for learning in the classroom. As an Occupational Therapy service we can support you in reviewing your child's school readiness and provide play based therapy support if required. Term 4 is a great time to be thinking ahead to 2021 and supporting your child to reach their full potential as they embark on their prep journey. Please contact Kylie on 0491 031 316 if you would like our help.

01.01.2022 The practice will use the play based DIR/ Floortime framework and sensory-motor interventions, and will be fully equipped for play based learning. This combination will fully support parents and their children in efficiently moving along the developmental pathways required to achieve their full potential.
