Developmental Assessment – Tracking Milestones, Nurturing Growth

Every child develops at their own pace, but timely monitoring of key milestones is essential to ensure healthy growth and early identification of any concerns. At Dr. Ayyasamy Children Hospital, our Developmental Assessment Clinic provides comprehensive evaluations to track your child’s physical, cognitive, emotional, and social development.

Led by Dr. Ramprakash MA, a skilled pediatrician with over 13 years of experience, the clinic focuses on identifying developmental delays early and guiding parents with appropriate support and intervention strategies. Dr. Ramprakash’s commitment to child health and holistic care ensures a thoughtful, reassuring approach to developmental monitoring.

The early years of life are crucial for brain development and learning. At this stage, small signs can indicate important needs. Through regular developmental assessments, our clinic helps detect delays in speech, motor skills, social interaction, and behavior before they become major concerns.

Key developmental areas assessed include:

  • Gross and fine motor skills (sitting, walking, grasping, drawing)

  • Speech and language development

  • Social interaction and play behavior

  • Emotional responses and temperament

  • Cognitive skills (problem-solving, memory, attention)

  • Self-care and adaptive skills (feeding, dressing)

Services provided at the Developmental Assessment Clinic:

  • Routine milestone checkups during well-baby and toddler visits

  • Screening tools like Denver Developmental Screening Test (DDST)

  • Observation-based assessments during play and interaction

  • Parental interviews and history analysis

  • Coordination with speech therapists, physiotherapists, and psychologists if needed

  • Early intervention planning and follow-up guidance

Dr. Ramprakash works closely with parents to understand their child’s behaviors and concerns. He believes in early action — because the sooner a delay is detected, the better the outcome. The clinic promotes positive parenting, practical exercises at home, and where needed, referral to specialized therapies.
