It is necessary to assess your child’s need for support when drafting a plan for early childhood education and care. In addition to you and the childhood staff, other professionals such as a psychologist, a speech therapist or an occupational therapist may participate in this work.
If your child needs support because of a physical reason or a reason related to knowledge, skills, emotions or social growth, the municipality tries to either implement the support at their current early childhood education establishment or find a more suitable place for your child.
Your child’s support can consist of different functional solutions, individualised small group activities or be a part of other day-care centre and early childhood education and care activities. You can get help from a special education teacher in early childhood education and care. Your child can receive support in multiple ways in cooperation with public health nurses, psychologists, social workers, music therapists, occupational therapists, speech therapists, family counselling, child psychiatry and the school.
