For Families

Practical Support Where Your Child Learns Best

ECI Teachers provides one-on-one support inside your child’s everyday learning environment, including kindy, early school years, childcare and playgroups. Our qualified early childhood teachers work alongside your child during real moments such as group time, play, transitions and routines. This helps them practise the skills outlined in their existing plan and build confidence throughout the day.

What Our Teachers Do

  • Support your child during everyday routines
  • Embed strategies from your Key Worker or allied health team
  • Practise social, communication and emotional skills in real situations
  • Help with group participation and transitions
  • Build confidence through guided play and meaningful interactions
  • Strengthen independence and early learning foundations

Our role is to complement the work of Key Workers, OTs, speech pathologists and educators.

How Support Works

  1. Referral received from a family, Key Worker or centre.
  2. Meet your teacher, who introduces themselves and learns about your child’s goals.
  3. Sessions scheduled directly with your child’s early learning setting.
  4. Support delivered in real routines, play and group activities.
  5. Updates provided to families and Key Workers throughout the program.

We keep everything simple so your child can focus on learning, practising and growing.

What Families Can Expect

  • A warm and consistent teacher who understands early childhood development
  • Support that fits naturally into your child’s day
  • Regular communication and clear session notes
  • A collaborative approach with your therapy team
  • Meaningful progress in confidence, participation and everyday skills

Who We Support

We work with children under nine who have NDIS funding that is either self-managed or plan-managed, and who already have goals or strategies from a Key Worker or allied health professional. Our role is to bring those strategies to life within your child’s everyday environment.

Our Commitment to Your Family

Every child deserves to feel confident, connected and supported in their learning community. Our teacher-led approach gives your child the consistent practice they need to make steady progress. Support. Practice. Grow.
