What To Expect

Short, Focused Sessions

Each screening lasts about 20 minutes and is led by a licensed pediatric physical therapist. You’ll receive expert feedback and a simple summary of findings. No referral or insurance needed.

Personalized Attention

Before the screening begins, we’ll review your baby’s brief intake history and ask about any concerns you may have. During the screen, we’ll observe how your baby moves, reacts to touch, and tracks with their eyes, while checking that developmental milestones are on track.

Clear Next Steps

At the end of the session, you’ll receive one of three recommendations:

  • No concerns – your baby is developing as expected
  • Mild concerns – we’ll suggest a follow-up screen in 1–2 months
  • Moderate concerns – we’ll recommend a full evaluation with a referral for therapy

Why It Matters

Peace of Mind

You know your baby best. If you’ve noticed something feels “off” or just want a second opinion, this is a safe, no-pressure way to get expert input. Even when everything looks great, it’s reassuring to hear that from someone who knows exactly what to look for.

Early Detection

Many developmental delays are easiest to treat when caught early, but they’re not always obvious. A quick screen with an experienced eye can bring reassurance, catch small concerns before they grow, or help you advocate for support sooner.
