In Vizag, many parents wait and watch when their child shows signs of delay. But how do you know what’s a phase—and what’s a red flag?

Early signs of delay may include:

  • Not responding to name after 12 months

  • No clear words by 18 months

  • Avoiding eye contact or play with others

  • Not pointing, waving, or using gestures

Delays can be mild, but when ignored, they affect school readiness, behavior, and social connection. Early screening helps you understand your child’s needs before challenges grow.

🟣 At Little Miracles, Seethammadara, we help you decode the signs early—with no pressure or judgment.
