Why Screenings Matter:

Screening young children is an effective, efficient way for professionals to look at a child’s development, help parents celebrate their child’s milestones, know what to look for next, and determine whether follow-up steps are needed. It is also an essential first step toward identifying children with delays or disorders in the critical early years, before they start school.

More about ASQ-3:

ASQ-3 is a set of simple questionnaires trusted for more than 20 years to check child development. There are 21 ASQ-3 questionnaires for use with children from 1 month to 5½ years old (one questionnaire for each age range). Here are the five important areas of development that each questionnaire looks at:

  1. Communication: Your child’s language skills, both what your child understands and what he or she can say.
  2. Gross Motor: How your child uses their arms and legs and other large muscles for sitting, crawling, walking, running, and other activities.
  3. Fine Motor: Your child’s hand and finger movement and coordination.
  4. Problem Solving: How your child plays with toys and solves problems.
  5. Personal-Social: Your child’s self-help skills and interactions with others.
The “Overall” section asks you open-ended questions about your child’s development and lets you weigh in with any concerns you may have.

*As a parent/caregiver, you are an active partner in your child’s learning and development and an important source of information about your child.

Will my child be labeled as a result of an ASQ screening?

ASQ is a screener, not an assessment, so it cannot diagnose a disability. It can help determine if your child needs further assessment or support in one or more areas. A big benefit of ASQ is that it helps catch potential delays or issues early—so if your child does need some extra support, follow-up, or intervention, they can get it now, when it makes the most difference.
