Early intervention is help for toddlers who are behind on talking, moving or playing, started before age 3, when it makes the biggest difference. Poorvam Care in Electronic City sees toddlers from 18 months: one assessment, then play-based speech, occupational and behaviour therapy, with you coached to keep it going at home.
One of these is a reason to ask. You do not need to wait for two.
A toddler's brain builds connections for language, movement and social skills faster in the first three years than at any later time. Support in these years works with that growth, and the gap a child has to close is still small.
That does not mean it is too late at 4 or 6. Therapy helps at every age. It means that if you are unsure, an assessment now costs little, and waiting costs months.
Find your child's age. If they are not doing what is listed yet, it is worth asking.
Toddlers develop at different speeds. Boys, twins, children born early and children learning two languages can be a little later, but they should still move forward each month.
Not turning to sounds, or many ear infections? A hearing test comes first. Our sister clinic, Poorvam Hearing, tests toddlers in Electronic City.
One assessment, one plan, and the same small team from the first week.
Most toddlers need one or two of these. The assessment tells you which.
If your toddler may have autism or another condition, we refer you to a developmental paediatrician for a formal diagnosis. Therapy does not need to wait for that appointment.
A child who stops using words, babbling or other skills they had should be seen by a paediatrician or developmental paediatrician as well as a therapist.
Early intervention is led by Apoorva Rai, MASLP, RCI registered, with 13+ years working with late talkers and young autistic children. Unsure where to start? See the developmental assessment.

Families come to us from across south Bengaluru. Here's which centre is closer, and when online sessions make more sense.
From Whitefield or Marathahalli, many families start with an assessment at a centre, then do part of the weekly therapy online.
How online therapy worksEarly intervention is therapy and support for babies and toddlers who are behind on talking, moving, playing or understanding, started before school age. At Poorvam Care in Electronic City it means a developmental assessment, then speech therapy, occupational therapy or behaviour therapy for toddlers from 18 months, with parents coached to carry the work into every day.
We start therapy from 18 months. If your baby is younger and you are worried, start with your paediatrician and a hearing test, and book with us when your child reaches 18 months. Help that starts before age 3 tends to make the biggest difference, because the gap is smaller and habits are not yet set.
No. Many toddlers who come to us are simply late to talk, late to walk or slow to play with others, and have no diagnosis. The assessment tells you what is behind and how much. If the signs point to autism or another condition, we explain why and refer you to a developmental paediatrician for a formal diagnosis. Therapy can start while you wait.
It looks like play. The therapist uses toys, songs, snacks and books your child enjoys to work on one or two goals, such as using a word to ask for something, or stacking blocks. You stay in the room, and the therapist shows you how to do the same things at home during meals, bath time and play.
Many toddlers start with two or three sessions a week. Sessions are 45 to 60 minutes, and the youngest children sometimes start with shorter ones. The exact number depends on what the assessment finds. We set written goals at the start and review them with you regularly, and sessions taper as your child catches up.
Yes, for families living near our Electronic City centres. Speech therapists, occupational therapists and ABA therapists can come to your home, where toddlers are often more relaxed. Therapy at home.
Some toddlers do catch up on their own, but nobody can tell in advance which ones will. An assessment does not commit you to therapy. It tells you whether your child is on track and gives you things to do at home either way. Waiting costs months that are easier to use early.
Fees depend on which therapies your toddler needs, how many sessions a week, and whether sessions are at a centre or at home. We explain them on the first call, once we understand your child's needs. Call or WhatsApp +91 88848 64343.
Book a toddler assessment. We call back within one working day to plan the first visit.
