Why Early Autism Screening and Diagnosis Matter for Your Child
As a parent, you may have concerns about your child’s development. Maybe they’re not talking as much as other kids their age, or they struggle with certain tasks. But is it just overthinking, or is there really a delay? That’s where autism screening comes in—it helps you get clear answers and take the right steps for your child’s future.
- Get Clarity on Your Concerns
It’s common for one parent to worry while the other thinks everything is fine. Instead of guessing, a screening can give you a clear answer. This April, in support of Autism Awareness Month, Kidz Steps Centre is offering free autism screening. This is a great opportunity for parents to check if their concerns are valid or if their child is simply developing at their own pace.
- Understand Your Child’s Full Development
Many parents only focus on speech delays—whether their child is talking or not. But development includes many other areas, such as:
- Social skills (e.g., making eye contact, playing with others)
- Fine motor skills (e.g., holding a spoon, using a pencil)
- Understanding instructions (e.g., following simple directions)
For example, a child may say many words but struggle with social interactions or following instructions. Early autism screening helps parents see the full picture of their child’s development.
- Avoid Confusion from the Internet
Googling symptoms can be overwhelming. Some sources say one thing, while others say another, making it hard to know what to believe. Instead of relying on the internet, professional screening gives you accurate answers based on your child’s specific needs.
