At what age should I seek help for my child?

While there are developmental standards, every child will grow their skills at a different pace. If you are concerned whether your child is functioning at a level consistent with their peers, it is recommended you seek a speech-language evaluation.  See our “Speech & Language Developmental Milestones” chart as a general guideline.

The early months of your baby’s life are a critical period during which the development of strong social & communication skills, emotional growth, and intelligence takes place. These skills serve as the foundation for which all other learning will be built upon as they grow older. For this reason, early intervention is of utmost importance.
