Early Intervention Sessions: 0-2 years (Babies)

These social and communication groups are open to all families with children aged from 0 - 2 years old. The groups will be taught in blocks of six sessions and led by 21 Together’s Education team and are aimed at teaching key skills such as; Makaton signing, interaction techniques, early physical skills and emotional support, as well as a chance to socialise with other parents/carers.

Sessions are designed to work on the strengths and weaknesses of the learning profile of a baby with Down’s syndrome and allow the families to ask questions and receive syndrome-specific advice and support.

Groups run every Monday for 6 weeks.

Week One: Makaton signing: Introducing Stage 1 Makaton signs, how to sign story to your child.

Time: 11:15-12:15 (Sessions will be 1 hour long.)

Venue: The Wonderworks, Westwood Industrial Estate, Westwood, Margate, CT9 4JX

Cost: Sessions cost £10 each payable at the start of the programme (£60 in total). If you feel for whatever reason that this cost would mean a young person could not attend, we would urge you to contact us as we have financial support available to those that need it.
