Service Provision
Services are play based, with activities that are fun and purposeful, maximizing function.
We believe a child’s family is an integral part of the therapy team. The primary service focus is training and support of caregivers so they can help their child learn and develop.
Depending on the child’s needs, this training may be in group settings or one to one with the parent/caregiver present.
