Meet your clinician

Hi, I'm Nor Laili

Master of ABA candidate, Monash University (final semester) · Certified Behaviour Analyst (CBA) candidate

I've spent more than 9 years supporting children and young people with disability — as a volunteer, teacher and support worker from preschool through to school and beyond. I've also worked as an ABA therapist in both Indonesia and Australia, across clinic, community, school and home settings.

I'm now in the final semester of my Master of Applied Behaviour Analysis at Monash University. I combine ABA with Positive Behaviour Support, taking the time to get to know your child and what matters to your family, so the skills we work on actually make everyday life a bit easier — for them and for you.

My work is supported by regular clinical supervision from a BCBA, so every program benefits from an extra experienced set of eyes.

Who we support

Every kind of learner, every kind of family

Our ABA programs support children with autism, ADHD, developmental delay and related needs — building the skills that make home, kinder and school feel a little easier.

Autism & ASDADHDDevelopmental delaySpeech & communication differencesBehaviour & emotional regulation

No label? No problem.

You don't need a diagnosis or a formal assessment to reach out. If you reckon your child could benefit from a bit of therapy support — or you're already working with a paediatrician, speech pathologist or OT and would love an extra pair of hands — send us a message. And if we're not the right fit for your family, we'll do our best to point you toward someone who is.

What we support

Real-life skills for the everyday moments that matter

We focus on the things that make a genuine difference at home, at kinder, at school and out in the community. Pick what feels most important right now — we'll meet you there.

Communication & language

From first words and gestures to longer sentences and back-and-forth chats — we help your little one find ways to be understood at home, at kinder and out and about.

Social skills & play

Sharing, turn-taking, joining in at the park, navigating playdates — gentle, real-life practice so your child feels more confident around other kids.

Daily living skills

Mealtimes, getting dressed, brushing teeth, toileting and bedtime — practical strategies that make the everyday a little smoother for the whole family.

Kinder & school readiness

Following routines, listening in a group, asking for help and managing the busy classroom — preparing your child for a positive start to school.

Transitions & Routines

Building flexible routines and smoother transitions can reduce stress, increase independence, and help children feel more confident throughout their day.

Behaviour & emotional regulation

Understanding what's behind big feelings and tricky moments, and learning calm, respectful strategies that work for your child and your family.

Not sure which area fits? That's completely okay — most families come to us with a mix. Send us a message and we'll help you make sense of it together.

Our process

A simple, no-pressure way to get started

We've kept things easy on purpose. Reaching out should feel like texting a mate who happens to know about ABA — not booking a serious medical appointment.

1

Reach out and say hello

Send us a quick WhatsApp or SMS. No long forms, no waiting lists — just a real conversation with a real person who genuinely wants to help.

2

Share what's on your mind

Tell us a little about your child, what's going well, and what you'd like a bit of support with. There are no silly questions here.

3

A friendly chat about your goals

We'll talk through what matters most for your family — your priorities, your routines, and what 'progress' looks like for your child.

4

Clear, practical next steps

You'll walk away with simple, individualised suggestions you can try straight away — and a plan for how we can keep supporting you.

What is ABA, and is it right for my child?

Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA) is an evidence-based approach that looks at how children learn and what helps new skills stick. Modern ABA is play-based, individualised and respectful — focused on meaningful everyday skills, never compliance for its own sake. The first chat is the best way to work out whether it suits your child.

Who supervises my child's program?

Programs are designed and delivered by our clinician, Nor Laili — a Master of ABA candidate, Monash University (final semester) and Certified Behaviour Analyst (CBA) candidate — with regular clinical supervision from a BCBA.

What ages do you support?
