This article mainly reports the action research in the home-based early intervention implemented on 20 developmental disorder children aged 0-6 years in Chongqing downtown, which lasted 4 years and aimed at the exploration of the service mode and the transdisciplinary team cooperation mode of the home-based early intervention implemented on the developmental disorder children aged 0-6 years in Chongqing downtown. All team members (professionals and family members) worked together to develop the individualized family service plan (IFSP). A variety of methods was used to record and share personal reflections, observations and assessment, formally and informally, within the team. The result shows that the home-based early intervention service mode has active influence on the children and their families, but the professional integration of transdisciplinary team cooperation mode is much difficult, affecting the results of early intervention.
