If you’re noticing patterns of ADHD in your child, you’re not alone. Small supports like clear routines, breaking tasks into steps, and creating low-distraction environments can make a big difference.

Understanding how children learn and focus helps us support them in building skills, confidence, and independence.

🐝 Myth Busting Monday

Myth: ABA is just about compliance.

Let’s talk about it.

There’s a common misconception that Applied Behavior Analysis is about making kids sit still, follow directions without question, or suppress who they are.

That is not what ethical, modern ABA looks like.

At Behaven Kids, ABA is about:

• Teaching meaningful communication
• Building independence
• Strengthening emotional regulation
• Supporting social connection
• Increasing quality of life

It is not about forcing eye contact.
It is not about “fixing” autism.
It is not about compliance for compliance’s sake.

We prioritize assent. We teach replacement skills. We focus on helping children advocate for themselves in safe and functional ways.

When done compassionately and collaboratively, ABA empowers kids and supports families.

Curious about what therapy really looks like? Let’s talk. 🐝

At Behaven Kids, our Bee Values aren’t just words on a wall. They’re expectations we intentionally reinforce.

That’s why each piece of our recruitment event swag was designed to represent one of our core values:

🐝 Bee Compassionate – Sensory sticker, reminding us to lead with empathy and understanding
🐝 Bee Collaborative – Hand sanitizer, because working together means supporting and caring for one another
🐝 Bee Results Driven – SMART goal tracker, reinforcing our commitment to meaningful progress and measurable outcomes
🐝 Bee Accountable – Notebook, encouraging ownership, follow-through, and personal responsibility
🐝 Bee Curious – Bookmark, representing continuous learning and growth

We’re not just recruiting people to fill roles. We’re recruiting people who embody these values in the work they do every day for the children and families we serve.

Compassion is more than a value on our wall.
It’s the way we show up when it matters most.

Today our staff is wearing purple to stand with Elias, one of our staff member's sons, and their family as they navigate a terminal diagnosis .

At Behaven Kids, we believe compassion goes beyond therapy. It extends beyond our clients. It reaches into our team, our families, and our community.

We carry each other. We lift each other. We care for each other.

Elias and family, you are not alone. 💜🐝

Parents often believe behavioral support means their child will miss out on learning opportunities. The truth is: learning happens everywhere.

Our Specialized Day Program blends structure, early learning, and skill-building throughout the day so children can continue growing in all areas of development.

Have questions about how our programs work? We’re always happy to help.

We’re excited to kick off our very first Birthday Bash at all of the Behaven Kids locations! 🎉🧁

This month our friends celebrated client and staff birthdays with cupcakes. While joining in some fun they are also practicing important life and social skills like waiting their turn, making choices, singing together, writing their names, and helping set up for a party. Moments like these help build communication, independence, and friendship skills in a fun, meaningful way.

We have to say, staff had a lot of fun with it too!

When access to care feels uncertain, families feel it deeply.

This article explores concerns surrounding LB911 and potential ABA restrictions. Our CEO provided insight into why protecting access to individualized, evidence-based services is critical for children’s development and long-term success.

Behaven Kids remains committed to advocating for services that support communication, independence, and quality of life.

If you are concerned about LB911, consider contacting your state senator to share how these services impact your family or your community. Your voice matters in shaping policies that affect Nebraska children.

ABA does not happen in a vacuum. Skills are built through collaboration, consistency, and support across settings, not just during therapy sessions. Make sure to talk to your child's BCBA about caregiver guidance!
