1. The infant’s name is Khaleesi. She is 6 months old. Khaleesi was observed when she was
with her mother and me (Observer).
2. There are a few observation made while observing Khaleesi with respect to PIESS. They
are as follows:
 Physical: The hearing and vision abilities are good as observed. She responds to
touch. She clearly listens to the voices of her mother and other people as well. She
pays attention to her own name. There was no teething as her teeth are just coming in.
She does not have any disabilities and she was born 1 week overdue. She can reach
out for the toys too. Yet she cannot sit without support. However, she has started
rolling over. The recommendation for the Physical domain is Height Measurement
and more playing with other kids. Her muscle development should be taken care of.
The development of bone can be one recommendation for her future healthy growth.
 Intellectual: She is very calm and composed even of when there are strangers around.
In the picture, she is engaged in her own activities while being in McD’s which is
always crowded. She babbles. She is a curious kid and observes things keenly. She
also imitates facial expressions. The recommendation for Intellectual domain is
answering simple questions.
