In 2017, we launched our Reflect Reconciliation Action Plan 2016-2017. 45 years on, we focus on working one-on-one with families in their natural environments and we work with the services that support children; like child care, preschool and out of school hours care to ensure that all children are given the chance to play, learn and interact. Our team consists of health professionals with extensive knowledge and experience in early childhood development, including occupational therapists, speech pathologists, physiotherapists, social workers, psychologists, teaching and inclusion support staff, as well as administrative support, marketing, business, research and managerial roles.
