Early Intervention in Greater Kailash I
Families do not have to arrive with a complete explanation for a developmental concern. Early intervention enquiries at JHANAK can begin with questions about a young child’s communication, movement, play or daily routines.
Start with the concern you have noticed
You may be unsure whether a difference needs assessment or simply want help understanding a difficult routine. Describe what you are observing and when it occurs. The appropriate next step depends on the child’s history and needs, so a webpage should not replace a conversation with a qualified professional.
Think about development across everyday experiences
Mealtimes, play, getting dressed and communicating with familiar people can all provide useful context. Note what your child enjoys and how they seek help. These examples help move the discussion beyond an isolated milestone or a comparison with another child.
Ask how the family will be involved
Support for a young child needs to make sense within the family’s day. Ask how any recommendations will be explained and which professional disciplines may be involved. A manageable plan should account for the child’s interests, comfort and opportunities to participate at home.
Review the plan as the child grows
Children’s activities and needs change over time. Discuss how goals will be reviewed and when a further assessment or referral might be appropriate. There should be no promise of a cure, a guaranteed catch-up date or an identical programme for every child.
Questions about early intervention
Yes. Describe your concerns and ask which assessment or professional would be appropriate. Enquiring does not establish a diagnosis.
No. Questions may involve several areas of development and daily participation. The appropriate scope should be discussed for the individual child.
Bring a brief history, relevant reports if you have them and a few examples of everyday activities. Explain your priorities and the questions you would like answered.
