Developmental, Learning & Life Skills Checklists - COMING SOON!

 

Not sure how your child is doing relative to the developmental expectations or suspect he/she has some sensory processing difficulties or learning delays that need to be addressed.  Feeling overwhelmed or having trouble concentrating and surviving all your own life expectations? 

 

Use these checklists to help you determine if our services may help you and your family.  The more 'no' answers the more your child will benefit from our services.
