Services
Evaluations
During the first session, a formal assessment of the child will be completed to set appropriate goals and talk more with the family about what will be addressed. At Baby Steps Florida, LLC, we perform thorough evaluations with current, research-based tools to assess your child’s development and provide essential recommendations.
Treatment Sessions
After your child undergoes an initial evaluation, the therapist collaborates with the family to create a tailored care plan. The frequency and duration of visits will be established, and individualized goals will be set. Sessions take place in the child’s home environment.
Consultations
In addition to therapy services, we also offer informational sessions where the therapist will educate families on developmental milestones, working with them on positioning, feeding, sleep, play, etc. During these appointments, the therapist will address the family’s specific wants and needs. Follow-up sessions can be scheduled as needed for further training and education.
There are also times when children under our care may benefit from another therapy service, including but not limited to physical therapy, feeding therapy, speech-language therapy, etc. In such cases, we provide consultative services for current families, where a therapist from a different discipline collaborates with the primary therapist during one session and offers strategies to improve progress in subsequent sessions.
Screenings
Screenings provide the most effective means of preventing and identifying developmental delays and disorders. Our occupational therapist is available to perform screenings for your child in your home or childcare center. Reach out to us for additional details.
