Welcome to Spriggle Kids
Support, connection and belonging — all in one welcoming place.
Spriggle Kids Inc. is a registered Australian charity and not-for-profit organisation based in Balnarring Beach, supporting children and families through allied health, developmental support and inclusive programs.
Our aim is to make support feel more connected, accessible and family-centred — bringing services together in a warm, child-focused environment rather than a traditional clinical setting.
We believe children thrive when they feel safe, understood and supported to participate in everyday life in ways that are meaningful to them and their family.

Our Space
A space designed for children to explore, play, connect and grow.
Nestled in Balnarring Beach, Spriggle Kids offers a welcoming environment surrounded by natural light, outdoor spaces and the quieter rhythm of the Mornington Peninsula.
Our spaces support a mix of allied-health sessions, developmental programs and teacher-led activities, while our shared sensory space provides a smaller, calmer environment for children who may benefit from quieter moments, 1:1 support or regulation breaks.

The Spriggle Kids Approach
A place where children and families belong
We bring together children, families, teachers and allied-health professionals in a welcoming environment built around connection, participation and individual strengths.
Child-centred
We build on each child's strengths, interests and individual needs, creating meaningful opportunities to learn, participate and grow.
Neurodiversity affirming
We recognise and respect different ways of communicating, learning, playing and experiencing the world.
Family centred
Families know their children best. We listen, work alongside parents and carers, and focus on what matters to each child and family.
Small-group programs
Our developmental and teacher-led programs use smaller group environments to create opportunities for connection, participation and individual support.
Nature inspired
Our Balnarring Beach setting gives children opportunities to explore, move, play and connect with the natural environment.
Connected support
Allied health, developmental programs and teacher-led supports come together within the broader Spriggle Kids community, while each professional works within their own role and expertise.
