What to do for my child when there is so little time and money?
Traditional therapies just aren’t getting the results you want for your child. You can’t afford to spend thousands and thousands of dollars on other approaches, and you don’t even know which ones to use anyway. Already, there aren’t enough hours in the day to keep your life and the life of your family vibrant instead of reactive and stressed.
We understand.
What would it mean to...
- Regularly see the shine in your child’s eyes that tells you they are engaged and enjoying life?
- Experience your child as whole and for your child to know that about him/herself?
- Be excited about the potential your child has to exceed the expectations of their diagnosis and contribute to the world as they grow?
- To know that the way you bathe, dress, feed, and play with your child is more than caretaking, it is stimulating new brain development and motor skills?
It would mean everything.
