Early Start Denver Model (ESDM)
The Early Start Denver Model (ESDM) stands out as one of the most effective early intervention therapies for children on the autism spectrum and those experiencing developmental delays. At Early Intervention Australia, we are committed to providing a comprehensive understanding of how ESDM can positively impact the lives of children and their families.
An Innovative and
Play-Based Approach
ESDM is a dynamic, evidence-based intervention designed to be both enjoyable and flexible. It centers around a play-based methodology, fostering substantial improvements in language development, social skills, and cognitive capabilities. Through purposefully designed and engaging activities, the model targets each child's specific goals and teaching needs, creating a stimulating and effective learning environment.
Tailored for Young Children
While primarily designed for toddlers and preschoolers, ESDM is a versatile approach that can benefit children from 12 months to 6 years of age. It recognizes that each child is unique and progresses at their own pace, catering to individual developmental stages and challenges.
A Holistic Approach to Development
ESDM is distinguished by its ability to address all areas of developmental need. It achieves this by emphasizing a child's strengths and interests, allowing them to explore their potential. Through targeted interventions, ESDM covers social communication, language, cognitive abilities, fine and gross motor skills, self-help skills, and adaptive behavior.
Accessible and Versatile Delivery
ESDM offers remarkable flexibility in terms of delivery. It can be implemented in diverse settings, including homes, clinics, and kindergartens. Whether your child thrives in a group setting or requires one-on-one attention, ESDM is adaptable to cater to their unique learning preferences.

The Early Start Denver Model has a proven track record in enhancing the lives of children on the autism spectrum and those with developmental delays.
