A New York Early Intervention Program
The Early Intervention Program (EIP) is a public program funded by New York State and county governments for children under the age of three who are either suspected of having or at risk for developmental delays or disabilities. Potentially eligible children must be referred to the county program to receive EIP services.
--
All Early Intervention Program (EIP) services are provided at no cost to parents. Health Insurance may be used for approved services. A child’s eligibility for the program can be determined only by state-approved evaluators under contract and all services must be authorized by the county. If a child is found eligible for the EIP, all needed early intervention services are identified in collaboration with the parent and must be authorized by the municipality. The municipality will arrange for service providers, considering the individual needs of the child and family, to deliver services authorized by the municipality.
123 Baby Talks is approved by New York State and has a contract with New York City to provide early intervention services.
We are dedicated to the care and education of your child.
Milestones matter!
Using the below, track your child’s milestones from birth to three (3) years old with easy-to-use checklists; get tips for encouraging your child’s development; and find out what to do if you are ever concerned about how your child is developing. From birth to age 3, your child should reach milestones in how they play, learn, speak, act, and move.

Referral
The Early Intervention process begins with a referral. Once a referral for services is submitted, our team will be in touch to understand the concerns you have about your child's development
Service
Coordinator
Our Service Coordinators are trained in providing guidance through the child’s referral to the Early Intervention program and providing due process.
Evaluations
After meeting with your Service Coordinator and sharing the concerns you have about your child's development, your SC will arrange for your child to have a multi-disciplinary evaluation focusing on your child's unique needs.
EIOD
If your child is eligible for services, the Early Intervention Official Designee (EIOD) will meet with you and your Service Coordinator to create an Individualized Family Service Plan (IFSP) to address your child's unique needs.
Services
Your child's Individualized Family Service Plan (IFSP) will include the approved services and the frequency and duration. For example, Physical Therapy, 2x per week, for 30 minutes per session.
123 Baby Talks
Please consider our team here at 123 Baby Talks your partner during this process. Email or call anytime. Questions are free! Services and the entire Early Intervention Program is at no cost to you.
Case
Management
At the start of the process, we assign a Case Manager to your child to ensure all critical dates, services, and requirements are met, managed, and maintained on time.
Children need fun therapy
Play-base Services for Growing Children
Early Intervention helps children ages birth to 3 years who learn, play, grow, talk, or walk differently than most children their age. We work with your family to set meaningful goals for your child and create a unique service plan to help your child and your family meet those goals.
In its simplistic form, the process occurs in three steps:
SERVICE COORDINATOR: Your SC is your legally mandated advocate in the process. They are here for you and your child.
EVALUATIONS: Your child is evaluated by independent New York State licensed clinicians.
SERVICES: If your child is found eligible, your child will receive services from independent New York State licensed clinicians.
