Description

Child Development 0-5 explores the typical milestones, or skills, that children develop from birth through age 5. It offers resources that caregivers can utilize to determine if a developmental screening may be warranted. Strategies for successfully advocating on behalf of children to receive needed assessments and services are explored. Participants will be able to identify both psychological and biological developmental milestones of children ages zero to five years old which will help parents identify possible concern for developmental, physical, and mental delays that may need to be addressed. They will also be able to distinguish the difference in typical and abnormal sexual behaviors for children ages zero to five years old.

 After completing this training, participants will be able to:

• • Identify typical developmental milestones for children age 0 – 5.
  • Identify possible concerns for developmental, physical, and mental delays that may need to be addressed.
  • Determine when to seek a developmental screening or assessment for children 0 – 5.
