Purpose of study is to early detect on developmental deviations in toddlers and pre-schoolers to early identification to promote the healthy development of children.
Methods: The method used was a qualitative descriptive approach and data collection techniques were taken based on the results of observations on 20 toddlers and direct interviews with parents. This examination is carried out using a Developmental Pre Screening Questionnaire (KPSP) which contains several instructions to the child and several questions to be asked for parents or caregivers.
Results: 2 children were obtained with a Doubtful interpretation of the results (M), because there was an answer "No" on the KPSP sheet, especially on social independence points.
