Our Early Intervention Physical and Occupational Therapies program supports children from birth to age 6 or entry into kindergarten who experience delayed motor skills, sensory processing challenges, or other developmental needs. Pediatric physical therapists help build movement, coordination, strength, balance, and endurance through play-based, family-centered approaches. Pediatric occupational therapists focus on fine motor skills, feeding, sensory regulation, and social-emotional development to support children in daily activities and positive interactions.
Families with children from birth to age 6 (or before entry into kindergarten) who are identified as being at risk for, or experiencing, a developmental delay in one or more areas, such as language, movement, or cognitive development, may be eligible for this program.
Referrals can be made by caregivers, childcare centres, or pediatric professionals with family consent.
This is a free program funded by the Province of British Columbia.
