Shine Therapy Offers Developmental Screenings for Speech and Occupational Therapy (OT) For Our Partner Schools.

We do screenings for select schools on a pre-arranged date. These screenings are a quick, play-based way to check on your child’s communication, motor skills, and overall developmental progress. They are fun, friendly, and typically take about 15–20 minutes. Our goal is to help identify any areas where a child may benefit from a little extra support as they grow.

Supporting Your Child’s Growth From the Start.

Every child learns and develops in their own unique way — and sometimes, a little extra support can make all the difference. Early screenings help identify your child’s strengths and challenges, giving you the clarity and confidence to help them thrive at home, in school, and beyond.

Early Screenings & Intervention

Occupational Therapy helps children build everyday skills such as holding a pencil, using scissors, getting dressed, staying focused, and managing sensory needs.
Speech Therapy supports communication skills — helping children speak clearly, understand language, and express their thoughts and feelings.

These services are especially valuable during the preschool years, when children grow and learn at a rapid pace. Early intervention can address challenges before they become bigger concerns, leading to greater confidence, stronger learning skills, and more positive long-term outcomes.

Why Early Intervention Matters

  • Builds Confidence: Early support helps children overcome challenges before they impact self-esteem or learning.
  • Maximizes Brain Development: The first five years are critical for brain growth — early intervention helps make the most of this period.
  • Improves Long-Term Outcomes: Children who receive support early are more likely to thrive socially, emotionally, and academically.
  • Empowers Families: Understanding your child’s development allows you to better support them at home and advocate for their needs.
