What is Developmental Delay?
In plain English
When a young child is significantly behind in two or more areas of development, such as movement, speech or learning. A formal diagnosis is not needed to get early childhood support.
Developmental delay describes a young child who is significantly behind in two or more areas of development, such as movement, speech, learning or social skills. A child can get NDIS early childhood support for developmental delay without a formal disability diagnosis. Early support often makes a lasting difference. Families can approach an early childhood partner directly to get started.
