Every child grows and learns at their own unique pace and achieves developmental milestones such as motor, speech and language, cognitive, communication, and socio-emotional skills, but sometimes it can be concerning to learn that your child may not be keeping pace with other children of their age. These developmental delays can be due to genetic, prenatal, neonatal, perinatal, or environmental factors that possibly lead to a developmental deviation.
As long as you have discovered these deficits in your child at an early age, there’s a lot you can do to help your child meet these milestones and reach their full potential.
At our Plexus centers in Bangalore and Hyderabad, we have a specialized program – called the Early Intervention Program – to meet the needs of your child in the six key areas of development:
Typically provided during pregnancy, infancy, as well as early childhood development, Early Intervention Program (EIP) consists of a range of developmental, therapeutic, as well as social services that can provide the much-needed support and guidance to children with developmental delays, as well as their parents.
At Plexus, we aim to provide timely, targeted therapy programs that focus on the all-round development of your child. These interventions can be remedial or preventive. Our Early Intervention program benefit your child with:

“I am a mother of a two-year-old who showed signs of atypical development. Unlike my eight-year-old, she was not responding to my name call and following commands. I consulted Dr Na’eem and he advised me to come for an assessment and an Early Intervention Program to Plexus. While other doctors asked me to wait and not worry, Dr Na’eem patiently listened to my concerns and asked me to hurry. I would say that was one of the best decisions I have taken for my child.
After I came to Plexus, I realized this was a major developmental delay. Not only speech, my child also had delayed development in so many of her skills. Today, as I finish the treatment, I am going back with a revived version of my child. She has started walking properly, talking, and even responding to me. I am so thankful to the entire team for bringing my child’s development on track.”

"When I saw my 2.5 year old doing some repetitive movements and not making eye contact, I realized something was not right. While browsing on the net, I learnt about Dr Na'eem Sadiq and about Plexus. I spoke to sir and came for a checkup. I am glad I took this step because my child was really suffering from sensory issues and showed moderate risk for Autism Spectrum Disorders. With the early treatment, he seems to have come on track with his development and I am very positive that he will overcome it entirely. I would like to thank Dr Sadiq sir for educating me and guiding me."
