Social Emotional Milestones in Early Intervention
Course Objectives, Outcomes & Course Agenda

Social-emotional developmental milestone delay is common in many children who were born prematurely, as well as many with given DSM diagnoses. Achievement of social-emotional milestones is critical for proper development of all other developmental milestones across all pediatric domains, which include fine motor, adaptive, gross motor, cognitive, and speech (both receptive and expressive).

Social-emotional milestones are a set of benchmarks that represent important steps forward in a child’s life. These milestones reflect how a child’s brain develops and include thinking, learning, exploring, and are related to problem-solving skills. When the child entrusted to your care accomplishes a milestone within a timely manner, it’s an adequate indicator that they’re progressing and developing at a good pace.

Learn & review critical concepts related to social-emotional development such as emotional attachment theory, emotional expression and regulation, social referencing, empathy, reciprocal social interactions, as well as joint attentional focus. Learning what a child achieves socially-emotionally at different stages is a must-know prerequisite for the social worker, therapist, & special instructor working in the early intervention industry servicing babies between the ages of 0-3.

Learning the timelines of these social-emotional milestones are part of the essential repertoire and arsenal of the competent special educators and social workers providing early intervention to (birth-3) population. The professional and  intimate knowledge of which milestones are achieved at particular age will help in evaluating the special needs child and facilitate the formulation of short- and long-term goals that address the delay and expedite its management.

Both special instructors/educators & social workers play a critically important role in fostering a child’s social-emotional development & skills through incorporating developmentally appropriate activities, tracking key milestones, and acting early if there are any concerns. This primer is a MUST READ for all early intervention providers who service the professional social-emotional needs of the  infant, toddler, and child with developmental delay.
