Say hello to Beki! Beki is a calm and nurturing Speech Therapist who loves collaborating her with team to produce the best outcomes for her patients. 💙

“Nothing is more precious than seeing kids grow and learn and start communicating - some even for the first time!” Beki said.

“My favorite activity is using a sensory box full of themed toys for the season. It can be filled with rice, beans, or kinetic sand. The children love digging through the sensory box and talking about what they find. This is great for practicing communication skills, talking about vocabulary, and even holidays or seasons that are coming up.” 🌸🌿

Say hi to Cyd! After nearly three decades supporting local kids, and she wouldn’t spend her days anywhere else! 💙

“Some of my favorite things to recommend to parents are activities that are simple but can help build the small muscles of the hand, wrist, and fingers,” she said. “Coloring, tearing paper, using a hole punch to create designs, using tongs to pick up small items, and even peeling up stickers!” 🖍️
