Early Childhood Diagnostic Team

Welcome to the Early Childhood Diagnostic Team website!

Do you wonder if your child is developing on time, or if the behaviors you see are appropriate?

We offer a variety of services to children living within or attending private-parochial schools within District 64. Our team is comprised of a psychologist, social worker, occupational therapist, and speech therapist. A physical therapist and nurse also work with us, as needed. Our services include preschool age screenings, infant and toddler screenings, a variety of evaluations, including play-based assessment, classroom observation, and standardized motor/cognitive/speech/language evaluations.
