Tiny K

About Our Tiny K

Tiny-K is an early intervention program available for children birth to three years of age in the Ottawa and Wellsville School Districts. Tiny-K provides home based services for children in our community who have delays in development or are at risk for developing developmental delays due to health or social conditions. Tiny-K is a free program to all families. We can provide a variety of services to families depending on a child’s needs. These include Speech Therapy, Physical Therapy, Family Service Coordination, Occupational Therapy, Early Childhood Special Education Services and many more.

At least monthly during the school year, developmental screenings are held throughout the district. Children must be referred by a parent, who has a developmental concern about their child. Developmental screenings are advertised in the Ottawa Herald each month. A screening may be recommended to a parent by a doctor, a Kan-Be-Healthy visit, Franklin County Health Department, Elizabeth Layton Center, a community-based preschool, or a day care provider.

If you have concerns or questions about your child’s development or are interested in a screening to see if your child is on track for development please contact Jaci Sterling (sterlingj@usd290.org), Program Coordinator at 785-229-8095.
