Learn the Signs - Act Early
Do you know all the ways you should measure your charge’s growth? We naturally think of height and weight, but from birth to 5 years, a child should reach milestones in how he plays, learns, speaks and acts. A delay in any of these areas could be a sign of a developmental problem, even autism. The good news is, the earlier it’s recognized the more you can do to help your charge reach her full potential.
