Developmental Delay & Early Intervention (0–3)

Early intervention at Nurture Physio in Gurgaon is gentle, play-based physiotherapy for babies and toddlers (0–3 years) who are late to roll, sit, crawl or walk. The first three years are when a child's brain learns movement fastest — which is why early help works so well. An early assessment gives you answers, and early therapy gives your child the best possible start; many babies this age need only a short course of guided play to catch up.

Common questions

My baby was premature. When should development be checked?
Premature babies are assessed using their corrected age (counted from the due date, not the birth date). A check at any point is worthwhile — and routine follow-up is recommended for babies born before 34 weeks or with a NICU stay.
Isn't every child different? Maybe mine is just a late bloomer?
Children do vary — that's exactly what an assessment sorts out. We tell you honestly whether it's normal variation or something worth supporting. A check costs you nothing but doubt.
Will therapy hurt or upset my baby?
No. Infant physiotherapy is gentle, play-based handling. Most babies enjoy sessions — and you're beside them throughout.
