Here are some starting points for finding the help you need for your child with a disability.
Getting started
I don’t understand what supports and services we will need for my child.
My child has many support needs. I’m not even sure where to start in the system.
What services might require planning well in advance?
Siblings and other parents
I feel like my other children are missing out.
Other mums and dads in my parents group don’t seem to be able to relate to my child or to my needs.
Getting support
I love my child, but being a full-time carer is exhausting.
We can’t afford to provide all the supports our child needs.
My child is attending a service, but I don’t think there’s enough support.
Common concerns
I worry about what will happen when we are no longer able to look after our child at home.
I’m not sure my child will cope with starting preschool.
