How we rank providers

  • How this list is built. Providers shown here list Speech Pathologist, Occupational Therapist, Physiotherapist, Psychologist, and Audiologist among their professions, or offer early childhood intervention, therapy, and allied health.

This support is new or still rolling out, so these are the closest-matched providers based on the criteria above while the dedicated program is established.
  • Outcomes with families. We measure what happens after a family contacts a provider. Providers where families report positive outcomes rank higher. Multiple signals are weighted across a rolling window.
  • Service match. Providers are ranked by how closely their registered services and capabilities match what you are searching for.
  • Registration and compliance. NDIS registered and government-approved aged care providers are weighted for meeting quality and safeguards standards.
