Success Stories
Missouri First Steps families share their stories about how the early intervention services have enriched their lives.
Our son was born 12 weeks early and spent a 70 day stay in the NICU. When he was
discharged, we began working with first steps immediately knowing that he would
likely have developmental delays due to his prematurity. Every milestone felt
impossible at first, and took time. But with the help of OT, PT, and speech, he is
thriving! Walking, completing puzzles, climbing playground equipment, and speaking
in small sentences. If it wasn't first steps, I am not sure he would be walking or
talking. We are so thankful to every therapist that has put in the time to work with
him and teach us skills as parents so we can be in the best position to help him
thrive.
How Are We Doing?
We strive for excellence in the training, support and services we provide. Surveys are an important tool for evaluating our success or shortcomings.
