What is early intervention and who can help you with it?

Benefits of early intervention: An early start to improve your child's development. The first three years of a child's development are the most crucial.

An early intervention team caters to providing special care and teaching to children from birth to six years of age. To understand more about what early intervention is, and how it may benefit your child, please check this informative video created in collaboration with Latika Roy Memorial Foundation.

Intervention in form of therapies helps young children catch up on lagging developmental milestones. Early intervention is the first line of support to help children who are at high risk for developmental delays reach their maximum developmental potential, and lead better lives at home and school as they grow older. As a parent, you play a key role in your child’s development and form the focal point of your child’s early intervention team.

Watch this video (Hindi) of Dr.Ajay Sharma where he explains the importance of early intervention for a child with developmental disabilities.

REMEMBER, EARLY HELP MAKES A BIG DIFFERENCE TO YOUR CHILD’S DEVELOPMENT

Nayi Disha Resource Centre spoke to Consultant Neuro-developmental Pediatrician Dr.Ajay Sharma about common concerns with regard to spotting and understanding red flags observed during a child’s development. Global developmental delays can be spotted in the early years of life by observing your child’s development with a sharp eye. If you spot any signs that raise concern about your child’s growth then immediately visit your Pediatrician and request for an overall developmental assessment of your child.
