Infant Toddler Program

The Infant Toddler program at TARC is available for families who have a child birth to three years of age with a developmental delay and/or disability.

The Children's Services staff at TARC believe that the people most involved in a child's life have the strongest influence on the child's development. This includes parent, siblings, grandparents, childcare providers and others.

All staff utilize their training and experience to help these important people promote the child's development in areas such as speech, thinking, and movement.

We offer:
•  evaluations by trained professionals- usually in the child's home
•  services provided where the child normally spends his days, such as home, a childcare setting, or local playgroup
•  services that focus on helping the family to help their child within the family's daily life, culture, values, and priorities
•  a variety of trained staff who can help the family work on goals related to their child's need and their family's priorities.
•  service coordination to help bring together the different people, information and resources that will support the family and child.

Infant Toddler staff include a variety of professionals that may work with the family and offer support. These could include an early childhood special education teacher, physical therapist, occupational therapist, speech therapist, assistive technology specialist or social worker.

"I really liked the way services for our daughter were integrated into her preschool setting. You included all the children instead of singling out my child."
