This years theme “Give To Gain” encourages a mindset of generosity and collaboration.
When people, organisations, and communities give generously, opportunities and support for women increase!
Whether through donations, knowledge, resources, infrastructure, visibility, advocacy, education, training, mentoring, or time, contributing to women's advancement. It all helps create a more supportive and interconnected world.
At Early Start Australia, we celebrate the incredible women in our teams who make a meaningful difference in the lives of the families they support, and each other’s lives, every day.

Our SA Clinics were delighted to attend the Source Kids Expo once again over the weekend. It’s always a wonderful event that allows us to connect with fellow service providers, meet new families, and engage with the wider community. 💛
This year’s expo featured informative sessions, hands‑on demonstrations, and the chance to talk through therapy options in person.
Our team was available throughout the weekend to answer questions about occupational therapy, physiotherapy, psychology and speech pathology, and to share resources tailored to each family’s needs. These events give us a valuable opportunity to show how our support can make a real difference in everyday life. 🌟
Thank you to everyone who stopped by, asked questions, or shared their story with us, you inspire everything we do. 💙
