Childhood Neurodevelopmental Delays

Children develop skills at different rates, but some children have difficulty reaching developmental milestones or struggle with coordination, balance, motor planning, sensory processing, body awareness, attention, or learning.

A child's nervous system develops through movement and sensory experiences. Vision, balance, touch, coordination, and motor control all provide important information to the developing brain.

At Delta Neuro Health, we look at these systems together to understand how your child is processing and responding to the world around them.

We begin with a conversation with the parent or caregiver and learn about your child's development, challenges, strengths, and goals.

A neurological examination is tailored to your child's age and abilities and may include balance, coordination, eye movements, reflexes, motor control, sensory processing, posture, and other neurological functions.

If appropriate, we create an individualized plan using engaging, age-appropriate activities.

We also value collaboration with pediatricians, occupational therapists, physical therapists, speech-language pathologists, educators, and other providers involved in your child's care.

When your child is struggling, you may find yourself wondering, “Why is this so hard for them?”

Maybe they have difficulty sitting still, coordinating movements, learning new skills, processing sensory information, or keeping up with other children.
There isn't always one simple answer.

Our goal is to understand how your child's nervous system is processing information and identify areas that may benefit from targeted, developmentally appropriate rehabilitation.

Most importantly, we want your child to feel successful and not overwhelmed. Care should meet children where they are and build from there.

Frequently asked questions

What age children do you work with?

We evaluate children based on their individual developmental stage and needs. We’ve had children as young as 1-year old in our clinic.

Do you diagnose developmental disorders?

Our role is to evaluate neurological function and provide rehabilitation when appropriate.

Will my child need to sit still for the evaluation?

We tailor the examination to the child’s age, abilities, and comfort level. We provide a shortened and revised examination for children to best evaluate them.

Do you work with other therapists?

Yes. Collaboration with a child’s existing healthcare and educational team can be an important part of care.

What kinds of concerns can you evaluate?

Depending on the child, concerns may include primitive reflexes, developmental delays, coordination, balance, motor planning, sensory processing, attention, body awareness, and other developmental challenges.
