Purpose: We developed a proxy questionnaire for parents of children with Developmental Delay (DD) to provide comprehensive information for instructors about the child's functioning before participating in aquatic activities. This dedicated information will enable a high-quality treatment plan to promote the child's functioning in everyday life.

Methods: Based on the International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health (ICF) Coreset development and linking rules method, a set of questions was constructed in a preliminary process.
