The Tiny Tot Clinic offers comprehensive interdisciplinary evaluations for children birth to 3 and includes:
- Assessment of speech/language, motor skills, and cognitive skills by a pediatric neuropsychologist, speech/language therapist, and occupational therapist
- Diagnosis of autism and developmental delays in language, motor, and other areas
- Assessment of developmental level in cognitive areas (e.g., language, visual skills, attention), motor coordination, and early academic ability
- Assessment of anxiety, mood, and behavioral issues
- Assistance and recommendations in developing an appropriate educational, behavioral, and medical treatment plan
The typical assessment process (may vary depending on the child’s needs):
- Interview with caregivers to gather information and understand concerns
- One appointment with the child (typically 2 hours in length) which may include administration of tests and structured play
- Immediate feedback with caregivers to go over
- test results, diagnosis (if appropriate), and treatment recommendations
