Every child develops at their own pace — but timely support can make all the difference. Our Early Intervention Therapy and School Readiness Programme is designed for children aged 0–6, combining evidence-based developmental therapies with structured school-preparation training. From the first signs of a developmental concern through to the first day of school, our multidisciplinary team works alongside families to build the skills every child needs to thrive.
Early intervention refers to the range of therapeutic and developmental services provided to infants and young children (typically 0–3 years) who show signs of developmental delay or disability, or who are at risk of one. Research in developmental neuroscience consistently shows that the earlier a delay is identified and addressed, the greater the child’s capacity to build foundational skills in communication, motor coordination, cognition, and social-emotional regulation.
At Trishaa Neuro Development Clinic, led by Dr. Ekta J Daftari, our Early Intervention Program is a holistic, multidisciplinary approach uniting Occupational, Physical, Speech, and Sensory therapies. We work side-by-side with parents through joyful, play-based strategies that seamlessly carry into everyday routines at home.
We provide targeted, evidence-based support across the full spectrum of developmental challenges in the critical 0–6 age window.
Delayed speech, language & communication development
Fine and gross motor skill delays
Sensory processing difficulties
Social interaction & emotional regulation challenges
Feeding and self-care skill development
Attention, focus, and behavioural concerns
Acting early makes all the difference. If you notice any of the following signs, an early evaluation provides clarity and guidance.
Delays in physical postures, strength, neck control, rolling, sitting, or walking.
Challenges with responding to parents, sharing attention, pointing, or uttering first words.
Severe distress with feeding textures, sleep schedules, grooming, or soothing.
As children approach school age, developmental support shifts focus toward the specific cognitive, social, and self-management skills required for a successful transition into formal schooling. Our School Readiness Programme is structured for children aged 4–6 years and bridges the gap between early intervention and mainstream or inclusive classroom settings.
The programme is built around five core readiness domains. Children are assessed against age-appropriate developmental benchmarks, and therapy sessions closely mirror the routines, instructions, and group dynamics of a real classroom.
Early literacy and numeracy concepts — letter recognition, counting, and concept formation.
Expressive and receptive language, following multi-step instructions, and story comprehension.
Turn-taking, sharing, recognising emotions, managing frustration, and building peer relationships.
Pencil grip, cutting, tracing, dressing independently, and managing a school bag and lunchbox.
Sitting at a desk, following group routines, raising hands, and sustaining focused attention.
Gentle, step-by-step guidance that supports both the child's development and the parents' peace of mind.
Observational and standardized assessment of motor, speech, cognitive, and social milestones.
Creating a synchronized plan combining occupational, speech, and physical therapy goals.
Interactive, child-friendly 1-on-1 sessions that turn developmental exercises into exciting games.
Coaching parents on how to weave stimulation exercises into feeding, bathing, and bedtime routines.
Equipping children with social, classroom attention, and independence skills for confident preschool entry.
Parents and caregivers are active partners in every step of the therapeutic process — not observers.
Our team takes a collaborative, family-centred approach to care. Every intervention plan includes practical strategies that can be reinforced at home. Progress is tracked through standardised developmental measures, and families receive periodic progress reviews outlining measurable outcomes.
Our care plans are comprehensive and coordinated across disciplines:
Giving children the right support in their formative years prevents secondary difficulties and unlocks their full potential.
Children rapidly catch up on sitting, crawling, walking, and early language milestones.
Smooth transition into playschools with strong peer interaction, focus, and classroom compliance.
Parents gain clear guidance, clinical reassurance, and practical tools, replacing anxiety with confidence.
Treating root neurological challenges prevents behavioral meltdowns and learning obstacles later in life.
Have questions about early intervention for your toddler or baby? Here are answers from our multidisciplinary team.
Consult Our SpecialistsDuring the first three years of life, the human brain develops faster than at any other stage. Neural plasticity is at its peak, meaning the brain is most adaptable and responsive to therapeutic stimulation, leading to faster and more permanent gains.
The "wait and see" approach often loses valuable time during peak brain development. A gentle developmental screening can confirm whether your child is slightly late on a normal trajectory or if early support will prevent wider developmental gaps.
Yes, absolutely! In early intervention, parents and caregivers are an integral part of the process. We coach you directly so you can seamlessly carry therapeutic play techniques into daily home routines.
Sessions are completely play-based and tailored to the child's comfort level. Activities involve soft textured balls, swings, sensory mats, musical toys, and interactive movement games that feel like joyful playtime.
