Be Inspired through rehAB!
Your child has a natural interest in interacting and communicating. Nurture and develop their early communication by providing stimulating and engaging experiences with rehAB resources.
At home and in the clinic, begin the journey to hearing with Advanced Bionics and the BabyBeats™ early intervention resource.
Babies Learn to Listen through Music
Before babies understand words, they respond to the emotion and musical aspects of your voice – the rhythmic aspect of language.
These musical interactions lay the foundation for early communication skills.
When do I Begin Using rehAB Resources?
You should begin using BabyBeats™ early intervention resources right away. Even before receiving a cochlear implant, babies' brains are able to absorb a comprehensive world of sounds, voice, and music.
Once they receive their cochlear implants, the full range of rehAB resources for children will help them realize the full potential of their new AB technology.
Music Time supports the development of your child’s listening and language abilities through music. With Neptune™, the industry’s only waterproof sound processor, you can practice anytime — in the car, in the home, and even in the bath!
Discover how your child’s listening, language, and literacy skills can be developed through sharing musical activities in the Musical Journey.

Take Time to Monitor Your Child's Progress
Monitor or Assess Progress with the IT-MAIS app or the Normal Developmental Milestones with Very Young Children; two of a variety of assessment tools from Tools for Toddlers. Explore rehAB assessments developed by experienced professionals – and understand the benefits and outcomes of cochlear implantation through research in areas such as ear bilateral implantation in children.
NAMES
This assessment developed within the Nottingham Auditory Implant Programme (UK) team provides a detailed profile of the expected skills developed by a child across the first three years after receiving their cochlear implant.
NAMES charts the growth of active listening and auditory memory from the earliest days after the activation, through to a sufficient understanding of spoken language to enable children to learn by listening within a group situation; as would typically be the case in an educational setting.
