Welcome to iCARE Interventions
iCARE Consulting Services
iCARE provides an intervention consultancy service within the Shires of Wellington and East Gippsland. It offers a holistic approach to learning and Education and works to identify each child's strengths to provide a supportive framework for Educators and families. ICARE utilises Educational and therapy based resources including learning strategies tailored to suit each individual child and their associated needs. Our service advocates on behalf of children and adolescents from birth to 19 years and seeks to provide Educational services and developmental intervention advice within Family Day Care and Educational settings, such as Kindergartens, Private, Catholic, Government Schools and Special Education Schools. ICARE focuses on identifying children who present with developmental delays, disabilities, learning difficulties, children at risk and children with behavioural, social and emotional needs. Each child's needs are addressed through a range of workable interventions in collaboration with Educators, families and the wider community. It focuses on partnerships within each child's learning environment (Educators, families, carers, friendships) and seeks to strengthen these existing connections.
