Physical, occupational and speech/language therapies

Pediatric Therapies at Child Development Center of the Bluegrass helps children develop skills through purposeful activities and maximize their full potential. The programs offer outpatient pediatric therapy and evaluations for speech/language, occupational therapy and physical therapy.

The program is based on the principle that children are unique individuals who develop at their own pace and need a supportive, challenging environment that includes age-appropriate opportunities for learning new skills.

Child Development Center of the Bluegrass offers full-day preschool services to children with and without special needs from six weeks of age until kindergarten eligible. For more information about childcare needs, please visit the Child Development Center of the Bluegrass website.
