The first few years of a child's life are crucial ones.
Early Intervention can enable the family to foster their child's development.
In conjunction with the parents and other professionals, an individual program is developed by the child care worker to be implemented in the home. The program's aim is to promote the growth of the child's skills, with the emphasis on family involvement. Visits are scheduled in accordance with the child's needs and the family's convenience. Toys and other learning materials are loaned to the family, as required. The Antigonish Early Childhood Intervention Program is a community based program for preschool children with special needs in Antigonish Town and County.
