Our Services
Healing Nest Early Intervention provides mobile play-based therapy for children around south east Melbourne. We specialise in supporting developmental delays, emotional regulation, social skills and school readiness delivered in the comfort of your child’s home, kindergarten or school.
Emotional Regulation, Confidence & Problem-Solving
Helping children understand and manage emotions, build confidence and strengthen thinking skills for everyday challenges. Our therapy supports children in recognising and managing their emotions in safe, age-appropriate ways. We help build resilience and confidence while teaching essential problem-solving strategies that can be applied in the classroom, at home and in peer interactions. We support children in developing self-awareness and the tools to manage their emotions in everyday situations. Using evidence-based approaches such as co-regulation, social narratives and modelling, our sessions help children build emotional literacy, resilience and self-confidence. We also embed age-appropriate problem-solving strategies into play to help children navigate challenges, make decisions and develop flexible thinking.
Cognitive, Language & Communication Development
We support language and communication through play-based therapy. We use interactive play-based approaches to support your child’s memory, attention and processing skills. Our sessions target expressive and receptive language development to improve communication, understanding instructions and asking for help. We focus on attention, following multi-step instructions, working memory, early numeracy and literacy foundations and developing verbal and non-verbal communication. Whether your child is learning to speak, needs support with sentence structure or is struggling with processing language, we provide personalised sessions that target these essential developmental areas.
