Do you have an NDIS plan? Lifestart supports children and young people through tailored Behaviour Support delivered by passionate and qualified experts who have helped countless children and young people reach their full potential.
What do we offer?
We offer Positive Behaviour Support for children and young people living with disability. We also develop and implement Positive Behaviour Support Plans.
Our staff include specialist Behaviour Support Clinicians and other professionals experienced in implementing general behaviour support practices.
We work with children, young people and their family and carers to:
- identify and understand the behaviours of concern that may be impacting on a child or young person’s participation in daily routines and activities
- develop an individualised plan to support learning new skills and ways to behave when joining in activities with family and friends
Positive Behaviour Support is about partnering with children, young people and their families and carers in problem solving and in places where they spend time.
We can also talk to the people in a child or young person’s life about how they can best support managing behaviour. This might be family, friends, teachers or other professionals.
Where a restrictive practice is being considered in supporting a child or young person, the process for authorisation will follow Lifestart’s Restrictive Practices Policy and Procedures including submission to our Restrictive Practice Authorisation Panel.
To help us match you with the right available support, we need you to answer a few questions by filling out the simple web enquiry below. One of our Customer Experience Specialists will match these answers against current availabilities and be in touch.
