As Jennifer steps away to focus on her family, we’re so grateful for the impact she’s made at Coastal KIDS.

Our incredible Administrative Coordinator has given nearly a year of dedication to our team and the families we serve. Jennifer has truly been the voice of Coastal KIDS—often the very first connection families experience when reaching out for support.

With warmth, empathy, and clarity, she guided families through each step of the process, helping them feel seen, heard, and supported from the very beginning. Behind the scenes, her organization, communication, and commitment kept our team running smoothly and set a standard of excellence we all strive to meet.

Jennifer, your impact goes far beyond scheduling and coordination—you’ve helped shape the experience of every family and team member you’ve worked with.

You will be deeply missed, and we wish you all the best in this next chapter. 💙

📚 Giving stories a voice!

Our Speech-Language Pathologist Sarah recently participated in the Madison Chamber of Commerce Read Aloud Program at Brown Elementary School.

Helping students experience the joy of books is something we’re proud to support, and Coastal KIDS Physical Therapy was honored to be a program sponsor.

Thank you to the Madison Chamber and all the volunteers making reading come alive for local students! 💙

Speech and Language Fun with Playdough:
Playdough is one of Misses Sarah's favorite therapy tools when supporting speech and language skills. It is so versatile, and of course, FUN!

Check out some of the many ways you can support your child's speech and language development through PLAY! ✨
🔴 Speech Sounds:
Have a target word list from your speech therapist? Make the actual objects or actions with your playdough
Practice different sounds by themselves (e.g., "b, b, b") while you roll playdough
🟠 Social Skills:
Practice turn-taking with the tools or playdough colors by modeling language such as "my turn" and "your turn"
🟡 Language Expansion:
If your child is ready to start combining words together, use their single word utterance (e.g., "ball") and add a describing word or action (e.g., "small ball", "go ball") to show them how to expand their own language
🟢 Vocabulary:
Label basic concepts such as size (big/small), colors (red,blue, green), actions (cut, squish, roll, pull, flatten, make), shapes (circle, square, heart)
🔵 Requesting/Help:
Model language using short, simple phrases during play if your child looks like they need help with the activity
🟣 Following Directions:
Give your child 1-step or 2-step directions while making your creations together!
