How Can Early Intervention Help my Child?Occupational Therapy

Occupational Therapists (OTs) work with families to address sensory processing concerns, helping children overcome sensory difficulties. OTs help infants and toddlers who have feeding challenges or are picky eaters.

Occupational Therapy is great for helping children keep up with everyday activities they will be expected to perform in their first social and educational settings. This includes the fine motor skills like reaching and grasping that are essential to play, as well as the self-help skills of using utensils and dressing.

Physical Therapy

A Physical Therapist helps children with conditions like Torticollis and Plagiocephaly, as well as balance, movement, trunk control, and other activities involving the large muscles of the body.  These include rolling, sitting, crawling, and walking. Physical therapists may also make recommendations for adaptive equipment when necessary.

Speech Therapy

A Speech Language Therapist helps children increase their communication skills. They assist families of children who show significant language delay, hearing loss, or who are having difficulty producing speech sounds. They can also help families of very young children to work on pre-speech skills, such as imitating sounds and auditory skills.

Nutrition Therapy

Vision Services

A Vision Therapist works with children who are blind or visually impaired.  The goal is to assess functional vision and help optimize the use of vision as well as the use of other senses. Assistance is available in making environmental adaptations and helping develop strong tactile, visual, and listening skills.

Social Work Services

In Early Intervention Support, the role of a social worker is to provide a variety of services geared to the special needs of children and their families.  In this role, the social worker acts as an adjunct to evaluators and therapists. At TEIS, we consult in areas of parent and child interaction, family dynamics, mental health, domestic violence, and crisis intervention related to infant and toddler development and family needs.

Hearing Services

Hearing affects speech, language, learning, and social skills. Identifying deficits and taking steps early is crucial to helping children 0 to 3 years of age in their ability to communicate and socialize. The earlier a child who is deaf or experiences hearing loss receives services, the more likely they can catch up to their peers in speech and socialization skills.
