Red Flags: Early Identification in Leeds, Grenville & Lanark (November 2007)

While young children can reach milestones at different ages, the CDC says you should talk to your doctor and consider an early-intervention evaluation if your child displays any of these signs or has a dramatic loss of skills.

Learning language helps children communicate. Learning to understand, use and enjoy language is a first step in literacy, and the basis for reading and writing.

It can be hard for parents to know exactly what to look for when they suspect their child is having a developmental issue. The free Nipissing District Developmental Screening (NDDS) tool can be very helpful and is available for children from 1 month to 6 years of age.

Act Early.” The campaign aims to educate parents about childhood development, including early warning signs of autism and other developmental disorders, and encourages developmental screening and intervention.
