Social Emotional Intervention for Young Children

Kids Interactive Developmental Services

Social Emotional Intervention for Young Children provides, in a child's home or child care setting, an assessment, creates goals and identifies needs for possible services.

This program can offer:

• Triple P Positive Parenting Program: A parenting and family support system designed to help children to realize their potential.
• Pyramid Model: A framework of evidence-based practices for promoting young children's healthy social and emotional development.
• Play Therapy: A trained therapist uses playtime to observe and gain insights into a child's problems, allowing them to help the child explore emotions and deal with unresolved trauma. Through play, children can learn new coping mechanisms and how to redirect inappropriate behaviors.
