Evaluations and early testing makes all the difference
Early Intervention Evaluations:
The Children’s School believes that children with developmental disabilities and their families should be given a choice of early intervention services and resources to maximize their child’s potential.
The first step in exploring these services is a multidisciplinary evaluation. After initial contact with the Westchester County Department of Health (914-813-5094), The Children’s School for Early Development may be selected as an evaluator for your child. Based on your family’s concerns and priorities, a team of Children’s School professionals will visit with you and your child at your home to conduct the evaluation. The comprehensive report that follows will then be used to inform the interventions established to meet your child’s needs.
We would be happy to help you navigate these first steps! For further information regarding The Children’s School’s Early Intervention evaluations, please visit our contact page.
