Personalised & Engaging

Every program is tailored, fun, and designed to keep your child motivated.

Evidence-Based

We use proven strategies that help children "learn how to learn," supporting lifelong independence.

Everywhere You Need Us

Therapy happens where your child is most comfortable: at home, school, our Glenorchy centre, or statewide.

Family-Focused

We empower you with the practical tools and guidance needed to help your child thrive.

Is your child struggling to learn?

We can help by using evidence-based methods like Applied Behaviour Analysis and Positive Behaviour Support to help your child with autism or other developmental delays improve essential life skills and help children learn.
Leaps Ahead Early Intervention acknowledges the muwinina and palawa peoples as the traditional owners and custodians of land, sea, sky and waterways of trowunna/lutruwita (Tasmania).
 
We pay our respects to elders past and present and extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples today.
 
We recognise a history of truth which acknowledges the impacts of invasion and colonisation upon Aboriginal people resulting in the forcible removal from their lands.
 
We stand for a future that profoundly respects and acknowledges Aboriginal perspectives, culture, language and history; and a continued effort to fight for Aboriginal justice and rights paving the way for a strong future.
