Today was eye opening —

As an OT, I spend my days pouring into others—helping bodies regulate, emotions find balance, and skills grow.

Today’s reminder: I have to pour into my own child too.
Not perfectly. Not constantly.
But intentionally—so he has the tools to regulate his body, name his feelings, and feel safe in them.

The work doesn’t stop at the clinic… it starts at home.

😊🥺😅😢

Oh how thankful am I.

So grateful for 5 months of play, progress, and partnership. Early Bloom is full of tiny victories—and each one fills my heart. Thankful for the kids who work so hard, the families who trust me, and the joy this work brings every day.

Happy Thanksgiving! 🦃🍁

October is here and so are parent-teacher conferences. Does your child’s teacher have concerns with toileting, fine motor skills, emotional regulation or sensory difficulties?

Reach out on our website and schedule a FREE discovery call to see if we, here at Early Bloom, can be of greater resource for your child and their support staff.

Website is in our bio—✂️✏️🚌

It’s officially football season! From Friday night lights to college game day, here are FIVE ways to prepare your child for a game. 🏈🏟️🏈🏟️

1. Contact your local venue to ask about a sensory friendly space within the stadium, how to enter with minimum overload and an exit plan if it is time to leave.

2. Pending your child, frontload information - where we are going to park, the noise you may hear, what you may see, etc. Show social stories, small clips of the game in preparation. This is also a great opportunity to upload pictures on your child’s AAC device or whatever they may use for communication.

3. Bring all of your child’s favorite comfort items. This could be noise reduction headphones, crunchy snacks, favorite drink and fidgets.

4. When choosing your tickets, find a spot where your child can participate in heavy work and movement for breaks. This may be pacing in an area, going up/down the stairs, doing wall push ups.

5. Attend a less-stimulating game first, if possible. This could be a professional soccer game or minor league baseball game. Slowly acclimating to the environments may help when it comes time to attend a big game.

It’s the best time of the year! Comment below who you are cheering for this football season!

Yes, yes & YES!

Schools are having to spend more money on occupational therapy because children are entering school without fine motor skills.

As your little one is preparing for back to school - here are 5 tips to ensure a smooth transition! 📚🚌🖍️🛝

1. Integrate school concepts into play. Let your child use real school supplies in their play, practice opening their lunchbox, draw a picture of what their new classroom may look like or paint a picture for their new teacher.

2. Handling separation anxiety- create a goodbye handshake, friendship bracelets, practice positive self talk and affirmations and identifying their feelings/what they need and how to respond.

3. Countdown to school by creating a visual countdown using a paper chain, add positive school notes or use figurines. This keeps the excitement HIGH!

4. Practice the basics by opening their lunchbox, water bottle, food items, toileting independently and advocating their needs. Practicing these skills at home in their safe environment builds their confidence.

5. Create a safe, melt space where they can go after school to relax and be a kid. Maybe this is coloring, a board game, listening to their Tonie or playing with their favorite characters. This is so important to not express demands as their little bodies need wonder and time to decompress.

Wishing everyone a wonderful start to the school year!
