A developmental assessment looks at your child holistically — communication, play and social interaction, motor skills, attention, learning, behaviour and family context. In Singapore's Novena Medical Center, we take time to understand the story, then partner with parents on practical next steps.
Overview
Every developmental assessment is different because every child is. We work with families to build a clear picture, using developmental history, parent observations, direct interaction, and — where useful — information from school and allied professionals.
