[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here- wanted to provide an update. My DC (20 months old) who has expressive and receptive delay has been to work with an educator/developmental specialist for now, not speech therapist yet. Does anyone know why that might be ? I would think they need to work with a speech therapist but wait and work with an educator? We are in Fairfax county. This was through child find. Any help would be appreciated.[/quote] At least in PG County it was there are other delays (but not enough to qualify for additional services) and they assume a special educator can work on multiple areas of development (appropriate play -which will very much look like speech therapy for receptive delays- maybe some fine motor stuff, etc). If you want additional speech, you can see if insurance will cover it. Also, there’s a little speech preschool program in McLean called Dolley Madison that starts at 2.5- you might want to look into if you’re in Fairfax county. [/quote] Thanks. They said to wait for speech and first work with an educator. Which makes me wonder if they suspect anything else. [/quote]
