About us

Spriggle Kids Inc. is a Victorian incorporated not-for-profit organisation supporting children and families through allied health, developmental and education programs. We're building a welcoming, nature-inspired service where children and families can access high-quality allied health support without feeling like they're walking into a traditional clinical environment. Our team supports children with autism, developmental delay, ADHD, intellectual disability, sensory differences and a broad range of developmental and functional needs. Our broader vision is to create an integrated children's hub where therapy, education, developmental programs and family support can work together rather than operating in isolation.
