Jump-Start Program for Young Children with Delays

Our Jump-Start Program is an intensive and short-term one-to-one early intervention program for children. It is tailored for young children under the age of 4 who show signs of developmental delays in the areas of speech, social & play, self-help, or motor skills. It is also designed for families seeking to address these areas effectively within a short period.
This program is designed to accelerate children’s skills and help them achieve developmental goals that might otherwise take months to reach. It offers a unique opportunity for families to make significant progress in a condensed timeframe (6 – 12 months). With support from our child psychologists and therapists, we identify critical learning areas, assess challenges, and provide intensive, targeted support to address these concerns.
Key Features of the Jump-Start Program:
- Intensity: 3-4 sessions per week to ensure consistent progress.
- Duration: Short-term intervention lasting 6 to 12 months.
- Focus Areas: Tailored activities and programs designed to improve weak areas such as speech and language, self-help skills, and social interaction.
Success Stories
Kelly’s Journey with Speech Delays:
At 3 years old, Kelly struggled to adapt to kindergarten. She cried daily, refused to eat or drink at school, and found it hard to follow instructions or play along with peers. After two months of struggle in kindergarten, her mom sought help. During her initial assessment, it was challenging to engage Kelly. However, after a few months of intervention, Kelly became more confident, accepting rules and started enjoying playtime with others. After six months, Kelly successfully transitioned back to kindergarten, where she adapted well. While she continues to work on her speech and academic skills, her progress has been remarkable.
Hanna’s Improved Social Skills:
Hanna, a 4-year-old with speech delays and poor social skills, struggled to socialize with peers and handle changes. Her parents found it difficult to manage her, as she often screamed or ran away when upset. After three months of intervention, Hanna’s speech improved significantly. She started answering questions, speaking in sentences, and became more adaptable to “no” or “later” responses. Her parents found her easier to manage, and her teacher reported significant improvements in her behavior at school.
Tong’s Progress with Signs of Autism:
Tong, a 2-year-old boy with no eye contact and no words, primarily communicated by pulling others’ hands and struggled to follow instructions. His paediatrician suspected autism. After 10 months of intervention, Tong made remarkable progress. He began expressing himself with simple words, following instructions, and enjoying playtime with peers. By the age of 4, Tong was attending kindergarten and adapting well to the environment. Conclusion
