Description
Our Psychologists can assist with supporting educators' understanding of developmental concerns and provide recommendations for support and accommodations at home and in the education setting, with direct modelling for the implementation of strategies.
This can occur as a group-based session with educators supported to look for indicators that a child’s development may not be tracking as expected.
Our Psychologists can also provide family workshops for parents and carers to learn more about what is typical development and indicators that a child may not be progressing typically in their developmental trajectory with strategies for how to scaffold particular skills that may not yet be demonstrated by the child.
