Therapies
CPL’s allied health professionals provide therapies for children with disabilities designed to help them at each stage in their development. We can help your child get ready for school; enhance their reading and comprehension; build their confidence and ability to make friends; and support many other essential skills for everyday life, growth and development.
Equipment and aids
Technology is always changing - and so are the tools that can empower children to live a life without barriers. We provide advice on, and prescribe, mobility and seating equipment as well as communication devices to help maximise your child’s engagement with the community and increase their independence.
Home support
Sometimes we just need an extra pair of hands around the house to take the load off. Whatever it is you are looking for, be it assistance with the school rush, help at meal times and dietary advice, personal care or overnight assistance for your child, we can create a schedule to suit you and your family.
Getting out into the community
Sometimes, having the time or tools available to assist your child to get out into the community on a daily basis can be difficult. We can support your child and your family to do the things you want to do and go to the places you you want to go.
School support
CPL’s therapists* and support workers work closely with teachers, parents and carers to help children with disabilities transition into school.
Starting when your child is preparing for their first day of kindy and prep, and then moving into school, CPL’s education support continues right through to high school and post-school planning.
*Therapists advisory school visits may be externally funded, for more information click here.

CPL services for kids - FAQS
My child has just been diagnosed. What's next?
The first thing to do is book an appointment with CPL to find out how we can provide the best support for your child and your family. From there, we can get started - whether that's providing support at home, helping you with your NDIS Plan, or booking in therapy appointments. We'll be with you every step of the way.
Do I need an NDIS Plan to get help from CPL?
You don't need an NDIS Plan to access CPL's services, but it certainly helps keep costs down. If you'd like to get setup with a Plan you can call the NDIS on 1800 800 110 and let them know you want to register yourself or a family member.
How can CPL help with school?
CPL will work with you to get kids school-ready. And once they're ready to enrol, we'll work with teachers and schools to ensure they have everything they need to participate and develop alongside their peers.
When you're preparing your NDIS plan, make sure you speak to your NDIS planner about support categories that may apply, including:
- Assistance with Daily Life
