Supporting Early Development: Resources for Families at Rising Stars Preschool

At Rising Stars Preschool and Childcare, we believe that every child deserves the opportunity to grow, learn, and thrive. Our staff is dedicated to supporting all families—especially parents who may be beginning to notice developmental differences or delays in their child.

For some families, these concerns may include speech delays, signs of autism, or behaviors that could be associated with undiagnosed ADHD. While every child develops at their own pace, we understand how important it is for parents to feel supported and informed during these moments of uncertainty.

Although not all of our staff have firsthand experience with developmental delays, we are committed to being a reliable resource for families by connecting them with trusted services in our community. One such resource is the Inland Regional Center, which offers early intervention services for children as young as from birth. Most of the time you don't need a diagnosis from a medical professional to utilize Early Start Services.

Early intervention can make a meaningful difference. Through evaluations, therapy services, and family support, children can receive the help they need during critical stages of development. Just as importantly, parents gain guidance, reassurance, and tools to better support their child at home.

If you have questions or concerns about your child’s development, we encourage you to reach out, ask questions, and explore available resources. You are not alone—and taking early steps can help set the foundation for your child’s future success.

At Rising Stars Preschool and Childcare, we are proud to partner with families on this journey and remain committed to helping every child shine in their own unique way.
