What is early intervention?
Early intervention is a system of services that helps babies and toddlers with developmental delays or disabilities. Early intervention focuses on helping eligible babies and toddlers learn the basic and brand-new skills that typically develop during the first years of life, such as:
• physical (reaching, rolling, crawling, and walking)
• cognitive (thinking, learning, solving problems)

• social/emotional (playing, feeling secure and happy)
• self-help (eating, dressing)
