Early Autism Education

Early Autism Education supports children with Autism Spectrum Disorder, related conditions and general learning delays (EAE) along their learning journey.

Early Autism Education (EAE) is an early developmental program for children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), related conditions and general learning delays that builds on each child’s strengths and interests to develop skills for life.

Our in-home or clinic-based sessions use teaching strategies tailored to suit your child’s own style of processing information. We focus on speech, communication, cognitive, play and social skills to enable children to engage in everyday life activities, education and social settings.

Our exceptional team of educators are passionate about building a strong rapport with each child and enjoy getting to know them through regular one-to-one sessions, figuring out what motivates them to learn.

We feel privileged to be a part of each child’s learning journey and love helping families every step of the way.

This program may be covered under your child’s NDIS plan.

Benefits of early education

Children’s brains are very receptive to learning as the neural pathways necessary for speech and cognitive skills are developing. Research shows that we have the best chance to increase children’s potential with developmental outcomes and encourage speech and language within the early intervention window of zero to seven years.

This will help your child develop essential skills to lead functional, happy and productive lives.

We can help children with a range of needs, from beginning through to advanced programs in all developmental areas.

We believe in helping individuals at any age and stage of their learning journey. We also provide ongoing support beyond the early intervention window, supporting our participants through school years and transitions through life and into adulthood.

Our curriculum

This will help your child develop essential skills to lead functional, happy and productive lives.

The EAE educational pillars include:

Initial readiness: encouraging participation, curiosity and interest to develop joint attention, imitation and understanding of verbal cues
Communication: speech, conversation and social language.
Cognitive development: basic and abstract concepts and pre-academic skills
Social skills and peer interaction: play, social and friendship skills
Life skills: learning self-help and independence to prepare for school and beyond.
