According to the CDC’s National Center on Birth Defects and Developmental Disabilities, 1 in 6 children have one or more developmental disabilities or delays (NCBDDD, 2018). Early intervention services for children with developmental delays have been associated with positive impacts on development as well as positive changes for the family and community (Goode et al., 2011). Child Development Watch (CDW) is a program in the state of Delaware that provides early intervention services for children with developmental delays under the age of three. As a part of CDW’s early intervention program, psychology consultation services are available to children and their families. The services consist of a consultation with a postdoctoral psychology fellow during the child’s initial in-clinic evaluation or during a home or daycare visit. The most common reasons for referral are concerns for behavior, sleep, feeding, and Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD).
