Early Intervention Development

Improved Essays
I will say that this course was of great impact to my future career as an Early Intervention Developmental Therapist, in regards to this is my last class for my degree and since I have been shadowing a Developmental Therapist, this course has opened my eyes to so much when I see an infant/toddler who is receiving early intervention. Every client I have seen the learning from this class has popped into my head in which I see where abuse, neglect, and poverty can play havoc in a child’s life earlier than I previously thought. I see where infants who have been neglected in foster care are on their way to a partial recovery due to a good family taking care of them and the child receives the positive outcome due to a loving family and

    I indeed never thought of myself as an advocate until I attended the seminar with Ken J. Jaffe. The seminar was an eye opener for me. While listening to his speech, I realized, that I’ve been advocating all along in the matters that I do on a daily basis; on behalf of the children in my care and the children in the neighborhood. Various times young parents can be frustrated while dropping off or picking up their children which causes them to speak to their child(s) in an inappropriate manner. However, I always find myself intervening on behalf of the child.…

    I completed my first teaching experience on Thursday, September 29, 2016. After much consideration on the course options, I settled on Dr. Ferrier’s Psychology of Child Development (PSY 2210) course. This class meets twice a week, so the class period was 1 hour and 15 minutes, and is located in Fletcher Hall, room 100. I strategically chose child development for my first teaching experience because I thought it was important to feel fairly comfortable with the material, especially knowing how nervous I would be. I took three developmental courses during my undergraduate career, and have two children of my own, so this course seemed like a great fit.…

    I love working with a diverse range of families. Each family that we serve has unique needs and desires for their child. I really enjoy the process of getting to know families, helping them develop a plan that aligns with their vision for their family, and shaping that plan as they travel their road in Early Intervention. Perhaps what I enjoy most is when I see how a family’s time in Early Intervention has empowered them to understand and advocate for their child.…

    Explain how different types of interventions can promote positive outcomes for children and young people where development is not following the expected pattern. “Early intervention means intervening as soon as possible to tackle problems that have already emerged for children and young people... it means that it targets specific children who have an identified need for additional support once their problems have already begun to develop but before they become serious.” (Department for Education, Early Intervention Paper, 2010.) There are numerous intervention services that are provided through schools namely, SENCo, Speech and Language Therapy, Social Workers and Educational Psychologists etc.…

Through the videos I was able to watch a baby develop the thought process that if they cry they will get attention. Crying is the main way for babies to get everyone to know what they want, it is their only way of communicated besides looking in the direction of what they want. My field experience at Little Alfa taught me a little bit.…
