The Connection Boutique was founded by Jodi and Kiera, two passionate educators with extensive experience in early childhood education, mainstream education, special education, leadership, and support coordination. Our journey into the allied health space was driven by a commitment to early identification, family education, and goal-focused support within the NDIS framework.

With 12+ years in education and the disability sector, we have grown from classroom educators to team and whole-school leaders, giving us a deep understanding of how to support individuals with disabilities and diverse needs. This experience has shaped our ability to work holistically, ensuring individuals receive targeted, meaningful, and manageable support.

We specialise in early screening and developmental assessments to help families understand individual learning styles, strengths, and support needs. Our approach is rooted in education and empowerment, ensuring that families have the knowledge and strategies to advocate for and support their loved ones effectively.

By keeping support relevant, realistic, and achievable, we aim to reduce the overwhelm that can come with navigating the disability and support space.

We focus on:

Early screening to identify developmental differences and unique learning styles

Practical, goal-focused skill development, tailored to each individual

Collaborative care, working alongside families, educators, and therapists to create manageable and effective support plans

Inclusive practices that help individuals thrive in both early childhood and throughout their lifespan

NDIS access support, including guidance on eligibility and funding utilisation

Our goal is to bridge gaps in understanding, break down barriers, and build confidence—so that every child and family feels supported and empowered on their journey.
