Children Services

Life Steps Foundation is a proven leader in providing in-home and center based services to children with developmental delays or those at risk of developmental delays and their families. We design creative treatment plans, always in collaboration with family, that address the special needs of each child and family.

Early Intervention—Since 1983, Life Steps has been a leader in providing early intervention services to infants and toddlers who have developmental delays or are at risk for delays. We work one-on-one with children at home and in peer group settings to enhance their communications, emotional attachment, and pre-school readiness. We also work to empower parents by helping them acquire supportive skills unique to their child’s developmental challenges and become expert advocates in their care. Empowered parents and enriched environments give these special infants and toddlers what they need to reach their greatest potential in all developmental domains.

We currently offer Early Intervention in the following locations:

Family Matters—Combining our core knowledge in independent and supportive living, parenting and infant development, the Family Matters program serves expectant moms during pregnancies and their babies from birth throughout the developmental spectrum. We ensure that parents with developmental challenges are well equipped with the resources they will need to raise healthy children.

We currently offer Family Matters in the following locations:

Center-based Inclusion Program—Our center-based inclusion program meets the needs of children with developmental delays, age 18 months through three years, in their natural environment with support all areas of development. Early interventionists collaborate with preschool and/or child care teachers to provide an enriching classroom that encourages social interaction, cognitive development, and language. Since children learn through play, Life Steps staff and preschool teachers plan a variety of activities that promote key developmental aspects according to each child’s specific needs.
