Welcome to developmentalweb.com – a listing of Seattle and King County area resources for children with learning disabilities or delays in development.  
  You’re in the right spot if:

• You are concerned that your baby or toddler isn’t developing at the same pace as other children the same age. 
  Many resources are only available until your child turns 3.  Don’t wait. 
  Check out the birth-to-three index for resources.
   
• Your pre-school or elementary school-aged child has just been diagnosed with a learning disability or a delay in development.  This is the place to look for resources, especially if you don’t want to be limited to services provided by your school district.
  Act now.  Insurance often pays for private services up until your child is 7 years old.
   
• You’re a knowledgeable parent of a special needs child and you’ve used some of the resources listed here. 
  Leave feedback so other parents can benefit from your experience.

This site lists both traditionally accepted treatment methods as well as more controversial alternative therapies. That said, we expect you'll conduct your own research before proceeding with any provider and monitor your child's experience closely.  Let you own judgment be your guide about whether something is right for your child. 

How to Use:
Click on the links at the left to access resources in each service area.  Browse for resources or leave feedback about a resource you have used.

Add a Provider:
If you don't find a provider listed that you know about, please email Add a Provider.

Leave Feedback:
This web site was started by a parent who was frustrated at how difficult it was to find help for her child.  She saw how the web can help us work together to strengthen all of our access to services for our children.  Instead of relying on word-of-mouth and playground conversations, we can pool our knowledge and build a stronger community.  Be sure to use the feedback form (Feedback) at the bottom of each page when you've used a provider. Feedback is the key to making this site work harder for all of us.  When you leave feedback, you help other parents starting out learn the things you wished you had known.

Disclaimer:  developmentalweb.com was created by and for parents.  That said, we expect you to conduct your own research before proceeding with any provider and to monitor your child's experience closely.  Let you own judgment be your guide about whether something is right for your child.  Then don't forget to let us know how it went by providing feedback.

Confidentiality:  When you provide feedback we hold your email address and name in the strictest confidence.  The only reason we ask for it is to be able to reach you if we have questions about the feedback or provider you've added.  You always have the option (in fact we encourage it) of using a screen name to attribute your comments to in order to protect your confidentiality.  Thank you for trusting developmentalweb.com.
