What is STRIDE?
STRIDE is designed specifically for a child’s developmental screening, assessment and intervention program to help discover any potential development delays in the areas of cognitive and physical development, language, speech and communications as well as socio-emotional development. These are important factors in a child’s development milestones. This program helps to intervene where necessary with the help of child development experts and the use of technology for the screening.
