Screening

  •  
     
    Children grow and change rapidly through their early years! Screening provides information about a child's speech, language, motor, cognitive & social-emotional development relative to their age. Information, ideas and activities to promote positive growth and development are provided during the appointment. Screenings are provided at no charge to Parkway residents.  *For children under 3 years, please enroll in the Parkway Parents as Teachers program. Screenings take place during home visits.
