The McCarton Center

Our Children

Most children come to The McCarton Center initially because of apparent behavioral or learning difficulties, delays in language acquisition, motor development or social skills. Sometimes children are referred from their pediatrician or school (nursery and grade school) and others are brought directly by concerned parents based on observations in the home.

The McCarton Center evaluates and treats a wide range of developmental disabilities from birth through age 14. These include children with:

  • Language Disorders (Expressive and Receptive)
  • Pragmatic Language Delay
  • Fine and Gross Motor Disorders
  • Learning Disabilities
  • Attention Deficits/Hyperactivity Disorder
  • Autism
  • Pervasive Developmental Disorder

  • Oral-Motor Dysfunction
  • Feeding Disorders
  • Hypotonia and Hypertonia
  • Motor Planning Deficits
