We understand that starting school can be a big step for your little one, and we’re here to make that journey smoother.
Our school readiness program in Ryde is dedicated to cultivating each child’s unique strengths, building confidence, and laying a strong foundation for school and beyond. Through a focus on communication and school routines, we empower your little one to grow and flourish in their learning journey.
Our therapeutic program is designed to support children in meeting their NDIS goals by developing the skills needed for social participation and everyday activities.
Each component of the Little Links program integrates behaviour therapy based on a well-established preparation framework that draws on proven principles in early learning. This evidence-based approach supports children in developing the social, emotional, and communication skills essential for school success.
Whether your family is local to us in Ryde, or the Greater Sydney area, Little Links delivers exceptional early learning outcomes for every child.

At Little Links, our approach is grounded in evidence-based communication strategies and developmental techniques drawn from the Preschool Life Skills program https://ftfbc.com/services/preschool-life-skills/.
As one of the few school readiness programs in Sydney to integrate this framework, we’re focused on giving every child a meaningful and well-supported start to school.
We understand that every child is unique, and our Little Links School Readiness Curriculum is carefully designed with their individual needs in mind. An experienced Behaviour Specialist oversees the programming to ensure your child’s journey is guided by expert knowledge and care of your child’s strengths, challenges, goals and preferences.
Your child will also benefit from 1-on-1 support from our skilled Therapy Assistants, all within a small, nurturing group environment.
To keep you informed and involved, our entire team meets regularly to evaluate your child’s progress and prepare a personalised Little Links End of Term Report.
This summative report shares how your child is meeting their goals and highlights the skills they are building to thrive at school and beyond.
Little Links integrates evidence-based ABA practices into our school readiness program, ensuring each child receives individualised support, measurable progress, and a nurturing environment that supports their growth as a whole.
