Leaps Ahead Early Intervention provides individually tailored programs for children from 18 months to 15 years of age diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) or another disability. Our programs use the principles and techniques of Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA) to help the child move towards age-appropriate levels in all areas of child development.

ABA therapy is used for teaching all kinds of socially appropriate skills to reduce behavioural problems.

Studies are available (see our resource link), that support the use of ABA with children affected by any number of different disabilities including Down Syndrome, Cerebral Palsy, Emotional disorders, Dyslexia, Dyspraxia, Anxiety, and Global developmental delay. We also work with children affected by related disorders such as ADHD and ADD.
