Early childhood screening

Screening is free, it’s fun, and it’s a great opportunity for you to see your child’s total growth. Plus it’s a requirement before kindergarten, so let’s help you get it done!

Did you know your child could benefit from a fun and free developmental check-up? Early Childhood Screening helps us celebrate your child's unique strengths and identify any areas where they might need a little extra support.

Why is Screening Important?

  • Early Intervention Makes a Difference: Catching potential delays early on allows us to connect you with resources and programs that can give your child the best possible start.

  • Peace of Mind for Parents: Screening provides valuable insights into your child's development and helps ensure they're on track to thrive.

  • Unlocks Opportunities: Screening can connect you with preschool options and early childhood programs your child might be interested in.

The screening is playful and interactive, focusing on:

  • Your Child's Amazing Skills: We'll celebrate your child's strengths in areas like vision, hearing, communication, and social interaction.

  • Personalized Support: If any areas need extra attention, we'll work with you to find the perfect resources and support to help your child shine.
