03.01.2022 We use a strengths-based approach in our early childhood programs. This means that we look at what works for the child instead of focusing on what is wrong with the child; supporting them while they learn new skills and connections.

01.01.2022 Our early childhood support sessions are just as fun and engaging for the therapists as they are the children.
