Early Indicators of Developmental Delays in Infants and Toddlers

Early intervention services, when they are begun early, can significantly influence the development of young children with disabilities, including autism spectrum disorders (ASD), and those who are at risk for delays in a variety of skills, including cognitive, language/communication, play, and social (Bruder, 2010; Guralnick, 1997). Over the years, the field of early intervention has grown to include not only preschoolers with developmental difficulties, but also infants and toddlers under 2 years of age. This evolution is based upon the notion that earlier intervention not only supports young children’s development, it also may prevent further difficulties down the road (Hebbeler, Levin, Perez, Lam, & Chambers, 2009; Guralnick, 1997).
