About the Provider

Description: We provide evaluations of your child's development in the areas of speech and language, fine and gross moter, social-emotional, cognitive, and adaptive skills. Evaluations are provided at no cost to families upon referral to the local school district and parental informed consent. The child is assessed in all areas of development to determine strengths and weaknesses. A social history, psychological evaluation, speech and lanquage evaluation, occupational therapy evaluation, physical therapy evaluation, an educational evaluation, and hearing screening are performed to assess your child's development. If a delay that warrants remediation is found, your child may receive programs and services as recommended by the committee on preschool special education.

I have used this provider for more than 6 months

My child was only less than 1.5 months in and she came home with an injury on her eye and cheek. All the staff gaslight me and tried to pass off blame. The lack of transparency is appalling. All they needed to do is send my child with an incident report, instead they chose to cover for teacher’s negligence. They were too busy passing off blame to the bus company than taking accountability.
