Developmental Delays

Developmental delays refer to a slower-than-expected progression in key areas of growth in children, such as speech, motor skills, cognitive ability, and social interactions. These delays can arise from various factors, including genetic conditions, environmental influences, or health issues. Children with developmental delays may take longer to learn skills like walking, talking, or interacting with others. Early identification and intervention are crucial, as they can help support the child’s development and improve outcomes. With appropriate resources and support, many children can catch up or significantly improve their skills over time.
