[quote=Anonymous]It maybe worth getting an IEP at a public school first and see what kind of supports and services the school will provide:   You can always switch to private SNs if there are issues.  Certainly, if cost is an issue it makes sense to see what the public schools can offer for free and your DS is so young.

When my kid was 4/5, our public school provided OT and PT for fine and gross motor for things like climbing stairs, playground equipment and dribbling and catching a ball.  He also got lots of help with fine motor including using zippers, utensils, handwriting, etc and later touch typing on a laptop, all provided one-on-one.  Also, help with pragmatic speech with the SLP but in a small group which for pragmatic speech works well.

At 4, DS had a diagnosis for ASD/Asperger's and developmental coordination disorder.  Fully mainstreamed and above grade level academically.  We also did private OT but it was useless bc it focused more on "sensory issues" instead of fine motor issues so we stopped private OT.[/quote]
