Supporting Every Child’s Potential Through Early Assessment, Intervention and Family-Centred Care
The Child Development Clinic at Sitaram Bhartia Institute of Science and Research provides comprehensive assessment, diagnosis, early intervention, and long-term support for children with developmental, behavioural, learning, communication, emotional, neurological, and feeding-related concerns.
Every child develops at their own pace. However, some children may need additional support to achieve important milestones in movement, speech, learning, social interaction, behaviour, attention, emotional regulation, or daily living skills.
Our multidisciplinary team works closely with families to understand each child’s needs and create personalised care plans that support development, confidence, independence, and quality of life.
The clinic brings together developmental paediatricians, paediatric neurologists, general paediatricians, child psychologists, speech-language therapists, occupational therapists, physiotherapists, audiologists, nutritionists, Child Health Educators, and other support teams where required.
