About Us

Therapy Services

Skillbuilders was founded in 1995 as the first private therapy team for children in Western Australia. We have provided quality therapy services to thousands of children and their families ever since. We always have experienced, dynamic therapists who are guided by parents and teachers to achieve the goals that matter most. Individualised therapy support is coordinated amongst the team to provide a plan that fits with the family. School, home and day-care visits are provided as appropriate to observe children in their regular environment, liaise with people involved with their day-to-day care, and to ensure developmental opportunities are maximised. Therapy services are provided on a regular basis at school, home and/or day care as needed.

Therapy Products

When we couldn't find the equipment we needed for our clients we went searching, and that's how our fantastic therapy resources shop evolved. Always innovative, Skillbuilders continues to lead in the provision of children's therapy services and products across Australia.
