Our Team - We are here to help

Early Intervention services are provided in your home. Infants and toddlers learn and grow best in their natural environment.  We are here to coach and support you as you support child's growth and development. 

In this time of crisis, our brains can only handle so much. If you as a parent can only handle one thing at a time, that is ok. Let your mere presence for your child be enough. You cannot be a breadwinner, teacher, doctor and parent all of the time. When your child calls your name, if just for a second, make eye contact, look, touch and see them. Just let them know you are there. They only need a touchstone. Give yourself a break, you are good enough and are enough.
