Tiny-k Infant-Toddler Services

​

Sunflower’s tiny-k program is 1 of 33 programs in a statewide tiny-k network serving children with developmental delays and/or disabilities from birth to age 3.  Our tiny-k services are available at no cost to children in Barton, Pawnee, Rice, Rush, and Stafford counties. 

​

The mission of infant-toddler services is to enhance the capacity of parents to help their child reach his/her fullest potential by overcoming or lessening identified delays before preschool.

 

Our programs are individualized.  We assess skills and provide intervention in six developmental areas: fine motor, gross motor, adaptive (self-help), cognitive, speech and language communication, and social/social-emotional skills.  Family service coordination (FSC) is also available to assist with family needs and to provide effective parenting strategies.

  

Once a child is evaluated, we work with the parents to develop the IFSP (Individual Family Service Plan).  These plans are designed to target the strengths and needs of the family working with their child. The family's choice along with the child's individual needs help determine the selection of services.

​

Sunflower’s infant-toddler services are provided by a team of professional staff including early childhood special education (ECSE) teachers, speech-language pathologists, physical therapists, an occupational therapist, and a Spanish translator.

​

Infant-toddler services are offered in your child’s natural environment, which includes at home, daycare or preschool, or a community setting such as a park or library.
