Services are provided in a variety of settings including children's homes, daycares, Grandparent's homes, as well as at our clinic in East Peoria, IL. Our sensory gym is available to the public for birthday party/private event rentals, and during 'Open Gym' times (returning to the scene in February 2024). Keep your eye out for upcoming 'Quiet Hours at the Gym' for some sensory-friendly time to explore. Along with our name change, you'll notice the paint color changing at the clinic, as well as the signs and social media logos.
