If your child is behind in any area of development within the broad range of expected growth, it may be cause for concern. Early intervention is the term used to describe the services and supports that are available to evaluate and assess your child’s strengths and weaknesses, and to help you address any possible challenges early on with a comprehensive, personalized program of care.
Early Intervention therapists provide infants and toddlers with individualized therapeutic support, such as speech therapy, physical therapy, occupational therapy, and other specialized services, to promote learning and growth. Therapies are designed to address each child’s specific needs and provide families with the skills to help their child navigate their daily surroundings and activities.

Your child learns best in a comfortable environment, with the people they know. From getting dressed to playing games, early intervention sessions take place in your child’s home or daycare center, allowing him or her to practice daily routines and activities with therapeutic guidance and support.

Your child’s success involves the support of your whole family. We provide personalized education and training for family members so they can promote the recommended methodologies and strategies for your child in a way that is consistent with their values and lifestyle.
Your child goes through many delightful stages of development during infancy and toddlerhood. Smiling, cooing, laughing, reaching, crawling — many of them emerge naturally over time, as he or she progresses from one milestone to the next.
If you are concerned about your child’s development, it is important to understand that children don’t all learn at the same pace or schedule. A professional evaluation can help you assess whether therapeutic measures are necessary or not.
Expected milestones fall into a broad spectrum of what is considered typical for children of any selected age range.
