SMILES Child Development Centre | Every Child Deserves a Smile

Why SMILES CDC

An Integrated, Multidisciplinary Model of Care

We bring therapy, education and family support under one roof — coordinated by a single plan, measured by real progress, and driven by early action.

🔍

Early Identification

Developmental screening and functional assessment to spot concerns early — because timely support changes trajectories.

🤝

Multidisciplinary Team

Speech, occupational, physio, behaviour, psychology and special education experts working together, not in silos.

📋

Individualised Plans

Every child gets an IEP/ITP with baseline scores, monthly progress notes and quarterly multidisciplinary reviews.

👨‍👩‍👧

Parent Empowerment

We coach families to turn everyday routines into learning — so progress continues at home, school and community.

Care That Grows With Your Child

Services Supported — Age Group by Age Group

From the antenatal period to adolescence, each stage has its own goals, risks to watch for, and the right blend of specialities. Age ranges are practical guides — actual support is based on your child’s assessed needs.

Antenatal & Newborn

Pregnancy – 3 months

Awareness & Screening

Focus: Risk awareness, screening and a healthy start

Counselling for high-risk pregnancy, newborn hearing/vision/metabolic screening, feeding and lactation support, and early developmental surveillance when risk is identified.

Early Intervention

Focus: Foundational skills & milestone support

For children with developmental risk, delayed milestones or early signs. We build communication, movement, play and daily-living foundations while coaching families to support learning at home.
