About MyTime
MyTime is a place you can connect with others who are raising children with additional needs. It can be a great opportunity to find out about new services and supports and talk to other parents about their experiences with services, therapies, and medications. MyTime is an opportunity to take care of you, with guest speakers, fun activities, and morning tea provided.
MyTime groups are for parents and carers of children aged under 18 years who need a higher level of care than other children. This may be because of disability, developmental delay, or chronic medical conditions.
Children under school age are welcome to attend and will be cared for by a play helper.
Play Matters is the MyTime Facilitator for the South East Queensland and Far North Queensland regions.
If you live outside of this region, you can access MyTime groups near you HERE.

Our MyTime Facilitators have experience in disability, parenting or family support and they make sure group discussion is open, inclusive and centred around the members needs. Our facilitators work with members to choose what they would like to discuss and assist with providing reliable resources and speakers and activities.
