Umbrella Program
We believe every interaction with your child is an opportunity to build skills, confidence, and independence. That’s why we created the Lizard Umbrella Program – it’s a smarter, more effective way to maximise your NDIS funding while providing your child with the best possible support.
What Makes the Lizard Umbrella Program Different?
✅ One Plan, One Leader, One Team, One Goal
Instead of juggling multiple providers, we streamline your child’s therapy journey under a tailored plan, designed and coordinated by a highly qualified Therapy Supervisor - your single point of contact for all services.
✅ Comprehensive, Multi-Disciplinary Support
We are NDIS-registered across multiple service lines, allowing us to integrate a variety of therapies and supports into one seamless program:
Therapeutic Supports - Personalised interventions to improve communication, social, and self-regulation skills.
Behaviour Support (PBS) - Evidence-based strategies to reduce challenging behaviors and foster positive interactions.
Early Childhood Intervention (ECI) - Specialised support to help young children build foundational skills early.
Core Supports - Practical assistance with daily routines like toileting, sleep, and mealtimes.
✅ Embedded Learning in Everyday Life
We embed learning into your child’s everyday activities, ensuring they develop skills in real-life situations. We create active learning opportunities that keep your child engaged and motivated. We provide teaching in your child’s natural environment, so they generalise skills where they matter most - at home, school, and in the community.
✅ More Value for Your NDIS Dollars
By using the NDIS-recommended keyworker approach, we eliminate duplication and maximise funding efficiency. Our trained Therapy Assistants provide twice the therapy hours for the same cost - meaning more direct support for your child!
Faster, Better Outcomes
Research shows that intensive, well-coordinated support leads to quicker and more lasting progress. Our program helps with:
✅ Better communication, social, and self-regulation skills
✅ Smoother daily routines – mealtimes, sleep, and toileting
✅ Greater flexibility and resilience to life’s challenges
✅ A balanced, more positive parent-child relationship
✅ Increased confidence in your parenting with expert guidance
What commitment do we need from you?
✅ Active participation in learning and applying strategies
✅ Commitment to at least two sessions per week
✅ Ensuring your child is available and engaged in sessions

How our programs work
Our programs are based on the latest evidence-based practices to achieve the best results.
We start each program by teaching the three foundational “learning to learn” skills of communication, toleration and collaboration.
Based on the child and family needs, we then deliver a tailored program of learning on new life skills such as communication, self-care, and social skills.
