Behavioural and developmental concerns can affect a child’s learning, relationships, emotional wellbeing, and family life. These concerns often emerge gradually and may be noticed at home, in childcare, or at school.
If you, your child’s teacher, or another professional has concerns about your child’s behaviour, development, learning, or social interaction, Dr Janaka can provide an initial paediatric assessment to help clarify what may be contributing and what support may be helpful.
Areas commonly assessed include:
- Behavioural concerns noted by family, school, or other professionals
- Speech and language delay
- Attention and concentration difficulties (including ADHD assessment)
- Autism spectrum assessment (initial diagnostic consultation and referral pathway)
- Anxiety, panic attacks, and low mood (initial paediatric assessment)
- Sleep difficulties
- Learning difficulties
- Global or specific developmental delay
- Follow-up care for children with an existing diagnosis of ADHD or autism, including medication continuation where appropriate
