Our Philosophy
"We believe that the family is the most important influence in a child’s life. Parents and guardians are encouraged and supported in becoming actively involved in planning, decision making, and participating in their child’s intervention plan.
"Our primary goals are: to promote healthy child development by identifying children at risk for developmental delays at an early age; and to provide timely, effective, family-centred interventions that will help all children achieve their fullest potential."
