The Sooner You Know, the More You Can Help

Every parent wants the best for their child. But if you’ve noticed delays in speech, social skills, or play behavior, an early evaluation can make a world of difference.

Research shows that children who receive support before the age of 5 experience faster progress in communication, learning, and independence.
