Guidance on When to Seek Support

Wondering whether your child is meeting milestones—or might need a little extra support?

You’re not alone. Many parents—especially first-time parents—aren’t sure what’s typical and what might be a sign to check in with a professional.

Early developmental delays can be subtle, and without something to compare to, it’s easy to wait and see. Sometimes that works out fine—but other times, families look back wishing they had taken that first step sooner.

That’s why we’re here:

To help you understand what to watch for, trust your instincts, and decide—without pressure—if now is the right time to explore a developmental assessment.

You don’t need to have all the answers. You just need a place to start.
