Our service is provided through "play with a purpose" by registered and certified professionals with extensive pediatric experience. We use a collaborative integrated team approach that involves the family, school and community.
- Getting READY -
- If your child has been identified as having a special need, give us a call . We will be more than happy to provide you with guidance through the assessment process.

- For PUF programming a teacher will oversee the educational appropriateness of the program and assist with school transition.
- Assessments are presented to parents in a report format. Child and family centered goals are captured within an individualized program plan that drives program intervention. Documentation, noting progress and recommendations, is provided to the family by each therapist after each visit.
