The purpose of early rehabilitation is to support and promote the development of a child with a disability and to improve the life of the child and his or her family. When providing these services, it is important to keep in mind that the child's development is a continuous process influenced by the environment, therefore the results are related to the interaction between the child and the environment.

An essential element of early rehabilitation is the parents' education about the disease, its consequences, related conditions, the peculiarities of the child's development, possible methods of therapy, their effectiveness, social assistance.
