The Child Development Unit (CDU) at Khoo Teck Puat – National University Children Medical Institute (KTP-NUCMI) offers a supportive environment for parents and caregivers, providing resources and clinical services to aid in the nurturing of young children.

Our resources cover various aspects of child development, including guidance on screen time, sleep hygiene and managing challenging behaviours. The CDU also evaluates and supports children with developmental and behavioural concerns including autism, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), developmental delays and learning difficulties.

If you need assistance with your child’s development, consider consulting with our developmental and behavioural paediatricians.
