The importance of early support for children with developmental delays
As infants begin developing the new skills necessary to grow into flourishing children, a variety of actions need to be met. Parents are faced with the tasks of feeding, bathing, guiding and supporting their infants’ growth to meet milestones “on time.” At times, the stressors of daily living can distract from this continual monitoring. Pediatricians recommend that early identification and integration of specific therapies (i.e., speech, occupational, physical, nutrition, applied behavior analysis, etc.) targeting developmental delays, boasts a better outcome in terms of closing the delay gap. Children’s Therapy Connections offers free screenings to support your child’s ongoing needs. No referral needed for a free screening.
