We are excited to announce a new partnership between Quirky Kid and Grand Pacific Health (GPH) launching in 2026. This collaboration is dedicated to bringing best-practice paediatric developmental and neurodiversity assessments to regional communities, ensuring that families can access high-quality care closer to home.

This pilot program will establish four regional outreach assessment centres in Moruya, Batemans Bay, Goulburn, and Canberra.

Our Shared Vision

The partnership addresses critical gaps in health services within underserved regional areas. By combining Quirky Kid’s long-standing clinical expertise with GPH’s deep roots in South Eastern NSW, we aim to:

  • Increase Access: Provide high-quality developmental and diagnostic assessments for young people and adults to identify those eligible for greater support.
  • Reduce Wait Times: Facilitate quicker, but robust, diagnostic pathways to enable faster access to early intervention services.‍
  • Improve Outcomes: Enhance mental health and developmental trajectories for families in regional and remote communities.
