Why Early Developmental Assessments Matter for Every Child

As parents, it’s natural to wonder if your child is growing and learning at the right pace. Are they speaking clearly? Engaging socially? Showing curiosity? While every child develops in their own way, some delays can be early indicators of developmental conditions like autism, ADHD, or speech and motor delays. This is why early developmental assessments are so important—especially in a rapidly growing city like Phnom Penh, where early support can shape a child’s long-term success.

At OrbRom Center, we offer comprehensive developmental assessments designed to identify your child’s strengths and needs across key areas including communication, motor skills, social-emotional development, and cognitive functioning.

The Power of Early Detection

Developmental delays are often subtle in the early years. A child might struggle with making eye contact, following simple directions, or using words to express themselves. While these signs may seem minor at first, early assessment helps determine whether intervention is needed—and what kind.

The earlier we identify challenges, the better the outcome. Research shows that children who receive support before age five have a much higher chance of reaching developmental milestones, catching up with peers, and thriving in school environments.

What to Expect from a Developmental Assessment

At OrbRom Center in Phnom Penh, our assessments are child-friendly and play-based, designed to make children feel comfortable and engaged. We use tools like the DAYC-2, Vineland-3, and WRAT-5 to gather accurate, research-backed insights into your child’s current functioning.

After the assessment, you’ll receive a detailed report and one-on-one consultation with a specialist to discuss results and recommendations. Whether your child needs occupational therapy, speech therapy, or intensive intervention, we’ll help you understand the next steps clearly and compassionately.
