Family Guidance Meetings
Finding the right programs and services for your child's individual needs can be a challenging and confusing process. That's why we provide all families with free guidance and support to assist in making decisions about what services are the most appropriate for their child. At our family meeting, we will construct a Plan of Action for your child with a recommendation as to what program or services would benefit your child and help them to reach their full potential.
Most importantly, you will have a new resource you can turn to whenever you need help; wherever your child goes to school or therapy!
(Please note that this is a consultation, not a formal screening or evaluation. If further evaluation is needed, we can set this up for you as a separate appointment.)
- You are welcome to bring your child to our Family Meeting.
- Please bring with you to the meeting any reports, evaluations, or IEPs you think will be helpful to share.
- We can discuss with you resources to assist in obtaining insurance reimbursement or financial assistance to help with the cost of your child's services.

Individual Occupational Therapy
Occupational Therapy is directed toward helping children develop the abilities necessary for the many "occupations" of childhood such as learning, self-care, play, and socialization. Individualized treatment is aimed at developing the underlying sensory and motor foundation necessary for skill development and goals are focused on the child's ability to function in the classroom, at home, and at play. Communication with family members, teachers, and paraprofessionals is emphasized for continuity with programming to facilitate progress.

Infant Development Program--Regional Center Vendor (CLASS WEBSITE)
This program is designed to ensure each child’s overall development through fun and developmentally appropriate educational activities. Each child is provided with an individual therapy plan that integrates IFSP or IEP goals as well as the goals from the other therapies (OT, PT, developmental & behavioral therapy). These goals are then implemented into their daily, theme-based schedule of circle time, social time, snack time, art, music, gross motor, sensory and fine motor center time, and phonics. Each class has eight to nine children and maintains a 2:1 student to teacher ratio. The curriculum is planned by our speech-language pathologist, occupational therapist, and preschool director and implements each child's specific developmental learning goals. Our speech-language pathologists work within the program each day and our occupational therapist attends 1-2 times per week with consultations from developmental therapists, behavioral therapists and physical therapists as needed. Parents are encouraged to attend a portion of the class each day to learn how to carry over the skills to the home setting. Verbal progress reports and suggestions are provided each day as well as monthly learning schedule and “at home tips.” Our goal is to teach your child their much needed developmental skills as well as build confidence and communication skills in a fun and nurturing environment.| AGE | RATIO | TIME |
