What is Cognitive & Developmental Support?
This specialized support focuses on enhancing the core mental
processes used in learning and daily life. For children with
developmental delays or conditions like Down Syndrome, this
means targeting skills such as attention, memory,
problem-solving, and reasoning. Our goal is to bridge the gap
between a child's current abilities and their full potential.
Areas of Focus
Our programs are tailored to each child's developmental stage
and learning style. Key areas include:
-
Executive Functioning: Improving planning,
organization, and time management.
-
Memory Enhancement: Strategies to boost both
short-term and working memory.
-
Problem-Solving: Encouraging logical thinking
and adaptability in new situations.
-
School Readiness: Developing the foundational
skills needed for academic success, such as following
instructions and basic literacy/numeracy concepts.
Our Approach & Benefits
We use engaging, play-based activities and structured learning
tasks to make development fun and effective. The benefits
include:
-
Improved Academic Performance: Better grades
and a more positive attitude toward school.
-
Increased Independence: The ability to
complete tasks and solve problems without constant assistance.
-
Enhanced Confidence: A sense of achievement
as new skills are mastered.
-
Better Social Integration: Improved cognitive
skills often lead to better understanding of social cues and
interactions.
