Home visiting is an essential service and an integral part of multidisciplinary Early Intervention program. The Home Visitor is a trained professional who collaborates with the family and a team of specialists, intervening in the child’s natural environment (home) in a systematic and routine based manner.

The home visitor’s role is twofold; one is working with the child on the developmental domains (communicational, physical, social-emotional, and learning), their adaptive s skills (feeding, dressing, and grooming themselves) and safety. The other, is coaching the parents and other care takers by providing them with the relevant information, techniques, and support to better teach/play with their child, to set realistic goals, and to address the challenges they face at home or outside in their daily lives.

This is done in order to ensure that the child and his family have a better quality of life, not only on a familial level but also on societal one by prompting better integration and a more positive outlook of situation (child case).
