We believe that every life is beautiful. Our personal mission is to find beauty, meaning, and purpose in every day, every challenge, and every interaction.
It's our mission to create joyful learning experiences through child-driven interventions that are meaningful to each family's unique journey.
We will provide support for families and children throughout development in all areas of daily life, with the intention to nourish each child's beautiful life.
We strive to facilitate interventions within flexible spaces that replicate natural settings to nurture each child's unique development.
All children require co-regulation through growth and development; children who have experienced trauma during development in utero or after birth typically require co-regulation far longer. Parents, caregivers, and educators that understand the neurological and sensory components of trauma, development, and regulation are much more equipped to identify and respond to a child’s behavior as what it is, a form of communication. Children who have experienced consistent, repetitive sensory regulation begin to then grow toward independent modulation.
Sensory processing refers to the way the nervous system receives messages about the environment from our senses and turns them into responses. For those with sensory processing difficulties, information from our senses travel to the brain and is perceived and/or responded to differently than same age peers.
We believe in child-led interventions, guided by sensory integration principles to facilitate experiences that are impactful beyond the treatment session.

The goal of feeding therapy is to help infants and children develop normal, effective feeding patterns and behaviors. This can range from difficulties with bottle/breast feeding, transitioning to solids, extreme picky eating, and poor intake. We will work closely with the child and family to determine the source of the child’s difficulties and develop specific interventions to make the entire process of eating easier and more enjoyable.
