This sweet boy is turning 6 & brings us all so much joy at the office ❤️
He politely told me, “Boss lady, I don’t think you can call me Boss Baby anymore, but you can call me Boss Boy, because I am 6 now.” 🥺🥰🥳
“Yes Boss Boy, you are right! I look forward to seeing you grow & I can’t wait to call you Boss Man one day!”

As a multidisciplinary clinic we respect that it takes a village & partnership when treating a child with developmental, behavioral and sensory needs. The team starts with the child & parent and the interdisciplinary team members ( OT, BI, SLP, DIR, PT, Teacher, Counselor etc..) working with the family. We have collaborated with Jessica over a DECADE and highly recommend her for Pediatric Occupational Therapy. She has 12 years of experience as a Pediatric Occupational Therapist and over 20 years’ experience working with children. Jessica prides herself in being able to treat the “whole child” and help them meet their upmost potential by utilizing developmental, sensory and holistic approaches.
She has training in Sensory Processing, Floortime and Applied Behavioral Analysis. She also has formal training with feeding therapy including baby led weaning, sensory, oral motor and the SOS Approach (Sequential Oral Sensory.) You can learn more and follow her along on Instagram or Facebook @otwithjess

To all the teachers, therapists, & admin support staff who have been showing up to support clients/students during this pandemic...THANK YOU! Many have been supporting their own kiddos at home or bringing them to work and they too share the same concerns as you & some are scared, but they are SHOWING UP! Virtual online school/therapy has its challenges, but remember some of the greatest influencers were introduced to us online. #mrrogers
We are full of gratitude for each and every teacher, therapist, behavioral support staff, and the dedicated admin support staff that keeps all in check and holds us all together. You are all my heroes 🦸♀️ 🦸🏾♂️ 💯 ZHN #thisshallpasstoo #findthegoodnessinothers #lifeisteachingyoulessons #weareholdinghands ♥️💯
Virtual schooling children with developmental, behavioral & cognitive needs can be extremely challenging for both the kids and the parents.

Einstein said, "Imagination is more important than knowledge." Symbolic play and fostering the imagination helps build communication, problem solving & sequencing, cognitive skills and social/ emotional development. PLAY and CONNECTION are essential for child development. We now have so much research about the (Neuro) Science behind play. Video posted with consent☘️

Do you think they don’t notice how they are not included in the conversation? Do you think they don’t notice they were excluded? Not promoted? Not invited to the class party? Not given equal opportunity? Not invited to a seat at the table so their voice can be heard? Think again.... provide the opportunity & support needed watch the impact they can make. Behind every disability is an ability, all it takes is for us to change our thinking & treatment of individuals with disABILITIES. Start with practicing #iseeyou #ihearyou
