Early Intervention services are critical for infants and young children who show signs of developmental delays or disabilities. By addressing motor, cognitive, and social challenges as soon as possible, children can develop foundational skills that set them up for long-term success. Our pediatric-trained therapists use play-based strategies and age-appropriate exercises to strengthen muscles, improve coordination, and boost overall motor function. We also collaborate closely with families and caregivers, offering guidance on how to support the child’s development at home. This comprehensive approach ensures consistency across different environments—home, daycare, and community settings—leading to more significant, lasting progress. Our Early Intervention program instills confidence in both the child and caregivers, showing that with the right support, every milestone is achievable.
The program starts with an assessment of the child’s current motor and developmental stage. Therapists then design playful activities that engage the child’s curiosity while building strength, balance, and coordination. Parent and caregiver education is integrated throughout the process.
Infants and toddlers up to age three displaying developmental delays or diagnosed conditions requiring specialized support.
