Is Your Child Reaching Their Milestones?

Every child develops at their own pace. Help Me Grow Gulf Coast can help you learn more about your child's development and make sure they are on the right track. Our developmental screenings are simple and brief and look at important areas of your child's development, including:

• Communication and language,

• Movement and physical skills

• Social and emotional skills

• Learning and problem-solving

A screening is a first step and does not diagnose a developmental delay.

It can help identify areas where your child may benefit from additional support.

We're here to help! After the screening, our team can provide helpful activities and suggestions and connect your family with programs and resources to support your child's continued growth and development.

Developmental & Autism Screenings

The questionnaire takes about 10-15 minutes to complete for children 1 month to 6 years of age and can be done at home using everyday materials.

It is not a diagnostic tool. It is a first step that can help identify areas where your child may benefit from additional support or follow-up.
