Summary/Abstract: The paper analyses and compares the early intervention systems in Slovenia and Slovakia, their epistemology, development, position of early intervention in the context of legislation and the current situationin the respective countries. Depending on the legal anchoring of early intervention in each country, the early intervention care itself is also determined. The results of the empirical studies show that the respondents in both countries see different advantages and disadvantages of their system. Therefore, in the application part of the paper, a comparison of the satisfaction questionnaires with the early intervention system of each country is discussed. The aim of the paper is to highlight the different ways of early intervention in Slovakia and Slovenia, to analyse and compare these differences. The aim is not to bring and adopt the early intervention system from abroad, where we can mark this system as an example of good practice, but to compare the different ways of its organisation.
