Sensory Saturdays. New dates!

The Center for Childhood Development will be offering 3 hour Saturday sessions for children with various developmental differences.  These sessions are open to any child aged 3-12 years old who would benefit from therapeutic group based activities.  We like to see new faces.

Occupational and Speech Therapy Intensives

A therapy intensive may be suggested / requested for your child in order to maximize the effects of treatment. In a treatment intensive the frequency, intensity, and duration of therapy are increased over a relatively short period of time. Typically, a child is seen for 1 1/2-2 hours a day for 4-5 days a week for either a 1 or 2 week period.
