Our Mission

 

Our mission is to empower our children to reach maximum success in all areas of life. Through play, movement, and exploration we enable them to develop the skills and independence they need for home, school and community life. We believe that a key element in each child’s development is involving the family to ensure that our goal plan is relevant, attainable and individualized. We invite parents to join in on sessions to learn how to implement therapeutic techniques at home, during daily activities. Parent, child and therapist become a powerful team supporting each other on the exciting road to success.

What The Parents Say

Our Facility

Long Room

The layout of our Long Room makes it the ideal space for all kinds of unique challenges that promote motor planning, coordination, and of course, fun! There are obstacles courses, rock climbing walls, swing hook-ups and more!

Small Sensory Gym

Although equipped with exciting equipment like the zip-line, this smaller room was set up to provide a cozier and more inviting space for the younger, and more fearful child.

Small Rooms

These four rooms are designed to offer a small, distraction-free space where children can learn to feel just right. We can adjust the lighting, incorporate therapeutic music, and utilize aromatherapy by diffusing essential oils to achieve a perfect state of calm and regulation.

Large Sensory Gym

The sky's the limit when it comes to creating new motor challenges in this room! This spacious gym has multiple hook ups so that many different swinging apparatuses can be configured in an infinite number of ways!
