Comprehensive developmental screening for infants, toddlers and school-age children — covering milestones, speech, motor skills, social-emotional growth and school readiness, with early support that makes the biggest difference.
Every child grows at their own pace — but there are well-established milestones for speech, movement, social interaction and thinking skills that most children reach within a known window. Developmental screening is a structured way of checking where your child stands against those milestones, so that any delay is identified while early support can still make the biggest difference.
Our team uses standardized, age-appropriate screening tools alongside a detailed conversation with parents about what they've observed at home. Findings are explained in plain language, and if a concern is identified, we outline clear next steps — whether that's therapy, further diagnostic evaluation, or simply a follow-up screening to track progress over time.
Precise Screening for the Questions Parents Ask Most
From missed milestones to speech, motor, social and learning concerns, our developmental screening services help pinpoint what's happening in your child's growth — clearly and early.
Select a Condition
A structured, whole-child approach to developmental screening, from the first consultation through to a personalised support plan.
We start by listening — to what you've noticed at home, birth and early developmental history, and any specific concerns, before choosing the right screening approach.
No one observes a child more closely than a parent. Their day-to-day observations often reveal patterns a single appointment can't.
Using age-appropriate, standardized screening tools, we assess milestones across speech, motor skills, social behaviour and cognitive development in a relaxed, child-friendly setting.
Most screening happens through observation and guided play, so children stay comfortable while we gather an accurate picture of their development.
Screening results are reviewed by our pediatric team, drawing on developmental, behavioural and — where needed — neurological perspectives to reach a well-rounded understanding.
Development touches many areas at once, so findings are never viewed in isolation — the full picture matters more than any single result.
Results are explained to parents in plain language, followed by a tailored plan — whether that's therapy referral, further diagnostic assessment, or a scheduled follow-up screening.
We walk parents through what the results mean, what happens next, and when to come back — so nothing feels uncertain after the screening.

Simple answers to common questions about developmental screening for children.
Developmental screening checks whether a child is meeting expected milestones in areas like speech, movement, social skills and thinking. It helps catch delays early, when support and therapy tend to be most effective.
Screening is recommended at regular checkpoints through infancy and early childhood, and any time a parent or caregiver notices a child isn't meeting a milestone their peers have reached. Earlier evaluation generally allows earlier support.
No. Screening identifies whether a child may be at risk for a delay and needs closer evaluation. A full diagnostic assessment, done separately, confirms whether a specific condition is present.
Children develop language at different paces, but a noticeable gap compared to expected milestones is worth evaluating. A speech and language assessment can clarify whether extra support would help.
Developmental screening can flag early signs associated with autism spectrum disorder, prompting a more detailed evaluation. It is a first step toward a fuller assessment, not a stand-alone diagnosis.
Results are explained to parents in plain language. If a delay is identified, we outline a personalised plan, which may include therapy referrals, follow-up assessment or school-readiness support, along with a clear follow-up schedule.
