GrowLearn&ThrivThrivee
Why Does it Matter?
There are clearly defined blocks of time or windows when most children will meet a milestone.
Tracking milestones is about watching and recognizing progress, but also, the loss of a skill previously acquired.
04/21/23
23
GrowLearn&ThrivThrivee
Why Does it Matter?
A delay in any areas could be a sign of a developmental problem, even autism.
The good news is, the earlier it’s recognized the more we can do to help a child reach her full potential.

What is Screening?
• Well-child check ups allow doctors and nurses regular contact with children to keep track of―or monitor― health and development
• Developmental screening is a short test to tell if a child is learning basic skills when he or she should, or if there are delays.
04/21/23
25
GrowLearn&ThrivThrivee
• Developmental screening can also be done by other professionals in health care, community, or school settings.
• Many children with developmental delays are not being identified as early as possible. As a result, these children must wait to get the help they need to do well in social and educational settings (for example, in school).
04/21/23
26
What is Screening?continued
GrowLearn&ThrivThrivee
Recommended Screening
• The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that children be screened for general development using standardized, validated tools at 9, 18, and 30 months and for autism at 18 and 24 months or whenever a parent or provider has a concern.

If we don’t, then who will? Will it be any easier later?
It’s too hard. Parents don’t want to always “hear” you. It’s upsets the day. It never goes smoothly – the referral/follow up.
