How she helps · Kharghar
Intellectual disability
Some children learn and grow more slowly than others of the same age. This can be an intellectual disability or a developmental delay.
Your child can still learn a lot. Therapy helps them reach each next step and do more for themselves.
Signs
Signs parents often notice
- Late to sit, crawl or walk
- Late or unclear speech
- Memory problems
- Childish for their age
- Needs help with things other children do alone
- Finds it hard to follow instructions
Every child is different. Your child may show some of these and not others. Only an assessment can tell.

Start as soon as you are worried. Early help makes the biggest difference, but it is never too late to build new skills.
Do we need a diagnosis first?
