In this episode, I'll walk you through 10 subtle early signs of ADHD that you can identify in children aged 6 months to 5 years - including a specific behavior during bedtime stories that most parents and even some pediatricians completely miss. 

As a clinical psychologist who works with families daily, I'll show you exactly how to check for each sign at home, because recognizing these early indicators can be transformative for your child's academic success, relationships, and your family's overall well-being.

Keep in mind that potting one or two (or even more) of these signs does not necessarily mean your child has ADHD.  This video serves to facilitate seeking guidance from your child’s pediatrician or another health professional if you have concerns about your child’s behavior. It is meant to be an at-home diagnostic tool.
