Early Support for
Strong Development

Torticollis Screening:

A physical assessment to check for signs of neck muscle tightness, which can affect head positioning and movement. Torticollis is often linked to asymmetrical head positioning and may require intervention to avoid further developmental delays.

Oral Motor Screen
(0-6 months)

This screen will be available to babies 0-6 months and will assess your babies oral motor skills to determine if there are any signs of weakness or discoordination that could be impacting breast or bottle feeding skills.

Head Shape Evaluation:

Experts will assess the shape of your child’s head to determine if there are any signs of positional plagiocephaly (head flatness) or other conditions that could affect skull symmetry. Early detection can help prevent long-term issues with head shape including the need for a helmet.

Motor Milestone Check

The screening will evaluate your child’s motor skills (such as rolling, sitting, crawling, and walking) to ensure they are reaching key developmental milestones at an appropriate age. Early intervention can be crucial for addressing any delays.
