Our in-home infant development program at Ascend Beyond Pediatric and Family Therapy provides one-on-one play-based services for children from birth to 3 years old who are at risk or have developmental delays. It is a family-centered treatment approach which takes place in the child’s natural environment and helps strengthen their development in 6 developmental domains: Communication, Adaptive/Self-Help, Fine Motor, Gross Motor, Cognitive, and Social-Emotional. Families benefit from a supportive program that nurtures their child while building confidence and connection within the home. This service is also ideal for families seeking specialized infant care in California, without leaving the comfort of their home.

Our program integrates play therapy, sensory-based learning, and mental health interventions to create an engaging, practical, and effective developmental plan. Sessions occur in the home, allowing children to learn in familiar surroundings while parents actively participate. Goals remain individualized, measurable, and adjusted as the child progresses, supporting each developmental milestone.

Supporting Parents Through Infant Development
