What is Child development assessment ?
Child development assessment measures a child’s physical, cognitive, emotional, and social growth against age-appropriate milestones. Assessments typically begin between 6 months and 6years, focusing on developmental progress, and later shift to evaluating age-specific learning skills.
This assessment is crucial because it helps parents, educators, and healthcare professionals understand a child’s progress and detect developmental delays early. Early identification enables timely interventions, ensuring children receive tailored support to reach their full potential while reducing future challenges in education and social integration.
