Child Development (Parents)

Do you wonder about your child's development?

All children grow and change at different rates.
A developmental screening can let you know if your child is on track.

The Ages and Stages Questionnaire (ASQ-3 and ASQ-SE 2) is a quick and easy screening that helps you learn more about your child’s development from one month to five years old.

• You can partner with your child care provider to regularly screen your child with the ASQ-3 and ASQ-SE 2. You provide the answers about your child, because you know your child better than anyone else.

• Your answers will show your child’s strengths and, sometimes, some developmental concerns.   If there are concerns, your child care provider will refer you to someone who can help.

• As of March 31, 2021, we are completing all Developmental Screenings online via the new ASQ Online module of the Family Portal.

Parents who use the ASQ-3 and ASQ-SE 2 say they learn a lot about their child’s growth and development, and they find new ways to play and bond with their children. And screening is fun for your child!

There are also supportive activities that you and your child care provider can do to help your child’s development. Your child care provider will share these with you.

YOU are the expert on your child!
