The list above is not exhaustive; there are other times the
child and family may transition during the first five years of their life.
Obviously, if the child or family moves, another transition takes place
with the family and their services. Other events such as death, birth
of a sibling, a medical diagnosis, divorce, or reunification with biological
parents are transitions a child and family may go through during the first
five years of the child's life in addition to their transition from service
delivery options. The importance of letting the family guide these particular
transition times should be considered by all the members of the early
childhood team.
