It’s Teacher Appreciation Week! Did you know that PE-ID has many Developmental Specialists with degrees in education? Our Developmental Specialists address many developmental concerns.
Concerns addressed include: delays in language, social, cognitive, behavioral concerns and MUCH MORE!
Stacy is one our program’s beloved Developmental Specialists/Educators. See what she has to say about working in Early Intervention.
“Hi! I'm Stacy and I'm an Educator/Developmental Specialist with the PEID Program. I've been working in Early Intervention for almost 10 years, and I've spent 8 of those years with the PEID Program. I was working with older children and adults prior to working in Early intervention and initially thought that I wanted to pursue a degree in counseling. Once I was exposed to the infant population and working with families in this capacity, I loved it so much that I pursued a master's degree in Education and became licensed in Human Development and Family Sciences. I love so much about working in Early Intervention. When a child is developing differently or not meeting milestones as expected, it can be a confusing and difficult time for families. Being able to alongside families and be their coach, guide, support, resource, encouragement, and cheerleader is an honor I can't even describe! I love celebrating each new success and milestone with families and being a part of their journey during these first few critical years of life.”
Thank you Ms. Stacy for all you do. You’re amazing! Teaching is a work of heart! ❤️
