Find answers to common questions about early intervention, BabyNet services, psychoeducational evaluations, parent support, and special education consultation.
Early intervention provides specialized developmental support for infants and young children who may have developmental delays or disabilities. Services focus on helping children strengthen communication, motor, cognitive, social-emotional, and adaptive skills while empowering families to support their child’s development during everyday routines.
BabyNet is South Carolina’s early intervention system for eligible infants and toddlers from birth to age three. Services may include developmental assessment, individualized family planning, family training, coordination of services, and other supports designed around the developmental needs of the child and family.
Children develop at different rates, but concerns with communication, movement, learning, social interaction, independence, or other developmental milestones may be reasons to seek additional guidance. If you have concerns about your child’s development, our team can help you understand possible next steps and available services.
A psychoeducational evaluation is a comprehensive assessment designed to better understand a child’s cognitive, academic, adaptive, and social-emotional functioning. The results can help identify strengths, learning challenges, and educational needs while providing recommendations that families and educators can use to support the child’s success.
