Why ESDM Works for Families in Rural Communities ⛰️

Families in rural and mountain communities often face long drives, limited provider availability, and extended waitlists for services. The Early Start Denver Model (ESDM) was designed to address many of these barriers.

ESDM is an evidence-based, play-based intervention that focuses on building communication, social engagement, and learning within everyday routines. Through parent coaching, families learn practical strategies that can be used during mealtime, play, caregiving routines, and shared activities — no special setting required.

Because ESDM is flexible and embedded into daily life, it works especially well for families who may not have consistent access to in-person services. Support happens in real time, within real routines, helping families build skills and confidence right where learning naturally occurs.

What Is ESDM?

The Early Start Denver Model (ESDM) is a highly researched, play-based developmental approach designed specifically for young children during their most important learning years.

Why does starting early matter? Early childhood is when the brain is most flexible and ready to learn — and ESDM is designed to meet children right where they are, through joyful, relationship-based play.

What makes ESDM unique? ✨ Developmentally informed ✨ Relationship-driven ✨ Embedded into natural, everyday interactions ✨ Empowers caregivers with practical, doable strategies

ESDM helps build communication, connection, and confidence from the very beginning — laying a strong foundation for lifelong learning.

Who Is Parent Coaching For?

Living in a rural mountain community often means long waitlists for evaluation or services. But families don’t have to wait for support.

Parent coaching is ideal for: ✔ Families waiting for assessment ✔ Caregivers noticing early developmental differences ✔ Parents wanting tools for connection and communication ✔ Families who want guidance while navigating next steps
