We assist families with children from infancy to age 3 who have concerns about their child’s development. The child may not be meeting age-appropriate milestones or may be at risk for developmental delays.
Our specialists work with a wide variety of concerns parents have including assisting children who have difficulty sitting up, talking, crawling, and/or walking, or experiencing challenges with eating, sleeping, playing, and interacting with others.
Our program is recognized as one of the most reputable in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. For more than 45 years, parents and caregivers have relied on our early childhood expertise.
“I did an online search for services as I had concerns about my daughter’s speech. Early Intervention Services was the first to respond to my online inquiry, scheduling an assessment quickly and now providing speech therapy services for Verra. She loves the therapist and is making great progress! I have also learned activities to incorporate into our daily lives. I am so pleased and 100% recommend Early Intervention Services to any parent having any concerns about their child’s development.” –Kristina, mom of a two-year-old, Lowell, MA

Getting Started is as Easy as 1 ,2 ,3:
Step 1
Request a Free Evaluation
Anyone who has concerns about the development of a child including parents and child care providers can contact our Early Intervention Services to request a free evaluation. You do not need a referral from a physician.
Step 2
Evaluation
An evaluation of the child takes place at the child’s home, at childcare, or at one of our locations. The goal of the evaluation is to meet with the parents, caregivers, and the child with the appropriate specialists to determine eligibility, and if eligible, to develop an Individualized Family Service Plan based on the needs of the child. There is no cost for this evaluation.
Step 3
Therapeutic Services
Services are provided by a multidisciplinary team of specialists to help the child acquire the skills they need to make gains in their development and reach their full potential.
Our therapeutic interventions are designed to naturally integrate into a family’s daily routines and are respectful of each family’s culture and learning style.
Children receiving Early Intervention Services through Partners in Child Development are three times more likely to reach their developmental goals by the age of three years old than the statewide average.
