Screening ResourcesDevelopmental ScreeningFACT SH E ETWhat is child development?A child’s growth is more than just physical. Children grow,develop, and learn throughout their lives, starting at birth.A child’s development can be followed by how they play,learn, speak, and behave.What is a developmental delay?Will my child just grow out of it?Skills such as taking a first step, smiling for the first time, andwaving “bye bye” are called developmental milestones.Children reach milestones in playing, learning, speaking,behaving, and moving (crawling, walking, etc.). Adevelopmental delay is when your child does not reach thesemilestones at the same time as other children the same age. Ifyour child is not developing properly, there are things you cando that may help. Most of the time, a developmental problemis not something your child will “grow out of” on his or her own.But with help, your child could reach his or her full potential!What is developmental screening?Doctors and nurses use developmental screening to tell ifchildren are learning basic skills when they should, or if theymight have problems. Your child’s doctor may ask youquestions or talk and play with your child during an exam tosee how he or she learns, speaks, behaves, and moves. Sincethere is no lab or blood test to tell if your child may have adelay, the developmental screening will help tell if your childneeds to see a specialist.Why is developmental screeningimportant?When a developmental delay is not recognized early,children must wait to get the help they need. This canmake it hard for them to learn when they start school.In the United States, 17 percent of children have adevelopmental or behavioral disability such as autism,intellectual disability (also known as mental retardation),or Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD).In addition, many children have delays in language orother areas. But, less than half of children with problemsare identified before starting school. During this time,the child could have received help for these problemsand may even have entered school more ready to learn.I have concerns that my child couldhave a developmental delay. Whomcan I contact in my state to get adevelopmental assessment for my child?Talk to your child’s doctor or nurse if you have concernsabout how your child is developing. If you or yourdoctor think there could be a problem, you can takeyour child to see a developmental pediatrician or otherspecialist, and you can contact your local earlyintervention agency (for children under 3) or public school(for children 3 and older) for help. To find out who tospeak to in your area, you can contact the NationalDissemination Center for Children with Disabilities bylogging on to www.nichcy.org/states.htm. Inaddition, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention(CDC) has links to information for families at(www.cdc.gov/actearly). If there is a problem, it is veryimportant to get your child help as soon as possible.Developmental Screening Fact SheetIn a friendly Q&A format, this one-page fact sheet gives parents a fast introduction toscreening and child development.
