Babies born with multiple births and their parents are at a disadvantage in terms of medical, developmental, and psychological risks compared to children born with single birth and parents. In this case study, the effectiveness of the Enhanced Milieu Teaching method with three sessions a week for eight weeks was applied to a 2;1 years old girl who was born with a quadruplet and diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder was examined. Other quadruplet siblings do not have any diagnosis. DENVER II-Developmental Screening Test, The MacArthur Communicative Development Inventory, Test of Language Development, Modified Checklist for Autism in Toddlers were used to evaluate the case’s four general areas of development, communication, and language skills, and autism risk before and after therapy. Results showed that the Enhanced Milieu Teaching method was effective in improving the expressive language skills of the child. Findings were discussed based on the results of the related literature.
