Just a recent room update I forgot to share! Not a huge change but it was long overdue and feels much more calming and less distracting 💛

Especially love our banner “Even the small ones can change the world” and the table lamp so we can turn the lights off!

It's a "critter clinic" that comes with animals and doctor tools, but it's SO MUCH MORE for us! This is one of our favorite therapy toys. We love hiding little surprises (that usually have speech or language targets) inside the doors for our clients to find. And our clients of all ages love unlocking the doors to find the surprises!

Also a great way to work on requesting "help"!

We’re so excited to announce something new for summer! 🔆 We will be offering Occupational Therapy services—designed to help kids stay on track with their IEP goals, prevent regression, and even make progress over the summer!

Our skilled OT will work with your child on their CURRENT goals for: fine & gross motor skills, sensory processing & self-regulation, handwriting & school readiness skills, independence in daily activities, focus, attention & executive functioning skills, etc.

Summer should be fun, but it can also be a great time for growth! Our individualized sessions can provide the extra support your child needs in a play-based, engaging environment, so they return to school feeling confident and ready.

🌟 Limited spots available as we will only have a part time OT, so we are starting to work on it now so you can reserve your spot early!

🌟 One more to check out! Check Out Our "Connectors" Connection Club (Social Skills Groups) for Kids of Any Abilities - Ages 8-12 🌟
Only 1️⃣ spot left in this group!

In our engaging, small-group sessions, kids can learn how to:

✅ Start & maintain conversations
✅ Read social cues & body language
✅ Learn perspective taking
✅ Handle conflicts & problem-solve
✅ Build friendships & teamwork skills
✅ Manage emotions & self-regulation

Each session is tailored to your child’s unique needs, ensuring they receive the right level of support and guidance.
