Core & Supplemental Evaluations
Core & Supplemental Evaluations for Child Development
Every child develops at a unique pace, but when concerns arise, a comprehensive evaluation offers clarity and direction. Our Core and Supplemental Evaluations are designed to uncover your child’s strengths and pinpoint areas where extra support may be needed. By examining multiple aspects of development, our expert team ensures families receive a complete picture of how their child is learning, growing, and interacting with the world.
We focus on the areas that matter most for early development:
- Communication – Using and understanding language
- Cognitive – Thinking, learning, intellectual ability, and problem-solving
- Physical – Gross and fine motor skills, such as walking or grasping objects
- Social – Interacting with others, expressing emotions, and building relationships
- Adaptive – Essential self-help skills, including feeding and dressing
When specific concerns are present, supplemental evaluations add a deeper layer of insight—whether in speech and language, physical therapy, occupational therapy, or psychological development. Together, these assessments provide a roadmap for effective early intervention and lasting progress.
Core Evaluations: Building the Foundation
Our Core Evaluations serve as the cornerstone of understanding a child’s developmental profile. Conducted by highly experienced clinicians, these evaluations are not limited to identifying challenges—they also highlight your child’s existing abilities. This balanced perspective helps families see not only where support is needed, but also how strengths can be nurtured.
Each evaluation uses observation, play-based tasks, and family input to create a complete developmental snapshot. From a toddler’s ability to solve problems to their first attempts at independent dressing, we carefully measure the skills that set the stage for future growth.
Supplemental Evaluations: Deeper Insights, Targeted Support
Not all developmental concerns fall neatly into broad categories. That’s where Supplemental Evaluations provide extra clarity. Based on your concerns and the findings of the core assessment, these evaluations dive deeper into specific areas:
- Speech & Language – Understanding receptive and expressive communication
- Special Education – Exploring how your child learns and processes information
- Physical Therapy – Strengthening gross motor development, balance, and mobility
- Occupational Therapy – Supporting fine motor skills, sensory needs, and daily tasks
- Psychological Assessments – Understanding emotional, behavioral, and cognitive factors
This individualized approach ensures no concern is overlooked, allowing families to receive the precise guidance they need.
