Concerns with your child's early development
As a parent you know your child best and will be aware of how he or she is growing and developing. You may become concerned about your child’s development and, when this is the case, it is helpful to know who you can go to for support.
This support may be referred to as special educational needs and disability (SEND) or additional needs.
Where you can get help
Services for Young Children (SFYC) Inclusion team
If you or your childcare provider continue to have concerns or need additional help, contact your local area Services for Young Children Inclusion team.
They will help to identify your child’s needs and refer you to the most suitable service.
Healthier Together is the first port of call for parents to get advice and guidance about their child's health and well-being.
If your child attends a childminder, out of school club, or an early years service such as a nursery or pre-school, you may wish to discuss your concerns with them.
