Developmental Assessment

A developmental assessment helps us understand a child’s strengths, their needs, and the areas where additional support may be useful. It is a starting point for a conversation with your family — not a label.

Who may benefit

  • Families who have questions or concerns about how their child is communicating, playing, learning or managing everyday routines.
  • Children whose teachers or doctors have suggested looking more closely at their development.
  • Families who would like guidance on whether therapy or other support might be helpful.

What the service focuses on

  • Receptive and expressive language — how a child understands and uses communication.
  • Play and self-engaging skills, social skills and imitation.
  • Cognition — thinking and early learning skills, including early reading and maths.
  • Fine motor skills and self-help (everyday independence) skills.
  • Your family’s observations, priorities and questions.

What an initial session may involve

  • A conversation with parents or guardians about your concerns and your child’s routines.
  • Play-based observation and age-appropriate activities with your child.
  • Discussion of initial observations and possible next steps.
  • Any recommendations depend on your child’s individual needs and the professional’s judgement.

How parents can participate

  • Parents share valuable information about how their child behaves at home and in other settings.
  • You are welcome to ask questions throughout and to discuss what matters most to your family.
  • Bring any previous reports you feel are relevant to the appointment itself — please do not send them through the website form.

Every child is unique, and children respond to support in different ways. Recommendations depend on an individual assessment and the professional’s judgement; no particular outcome can be guaranteed.
