If you are concerned about your child's development or health, Early On is here to help you.  Your child may be eligibile for a free evaluation and your family may be eligible for a wide range of services.  Early On is for families with infants and toddlers under the age of three. 

Introduction

When a baby is born, every parent hopes that he/she will have a healthy baby.  Sometimes, however, things don't go as planned.  The baby may be ill or may seem slow in meeting developmental milestones, such as smiling, sitting up, or speaking.

If you have a concern about a baby's health or development, Early On services infants and toddlers from birth to 36 months with developmental delay or conditions that could lead to such delay.  It has been well established that early intervention is an effective way to prevent or reduce problems for children at a later age.

Early On specializes in evaluating and treating children that are not developing at the same rate as other children.  This can include physical, mental, social, or emotional development.  Early On is offered by the Michigan Department of Education.  Early On is mandated by Part C of the federal Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA).
