Early Childhood intervention

What is Early Childhood Intervention?

There are lots of skills that develop in the first three years of a child’s life. Some children meet developmental milestones more slowly than expected. This is called a developmental delay. Early intervention helps young kids work toward meeting developmental milestones.  

Early intervention provides the support they need to make progress in life skills. It also provides support for families who care for them.

Early interventions focuses on skills in these five areas:

• Physical skills (reaching, crawling, walking, drawing, building)
• Cognitive skills (thinking, learning, solving problems)
• Communication skills (talking, listening, understanding others)
• Self-help or adaptive skills (eating, dressing)
• Social or emotional skills (playing, interacting with others)

Different types of specialists work with kids depending on which skills are delayed. Getting services early helps many kids catch up and thrive in school and in life overall.

How can we help

SafeZone early Childhood intervention supports are designed to help set the foundation for your child’s future and accomplish the outcomes you’re seeking for them. We take time getting to know you and your child, listen to your main concerns and the reason you are seeking support, to assist you to set the right goals for your child.

We specialise in teaching children functional behaviours, social and independent living skills, play skills, copying skills and emotional regulations. Each child receives individual strategies focusing on goals which best support them to achieve long-term outcomes.

This service not only works for children with developmental delays, but any child needing our help to learn through the science of Applied Behaviour Analysis.
