All children are special and possess individualized gifts and strengths that they share with the world. While there are so many incredible joys of parenting and raising children, there can be many challenges along the journey. Navigating parenting, promoting young children’s healthy growth and development, and fostering resilient mindsets can be difficult at times, but you are not alone. As the African proverb teaches us, “It Takes a Village to Raise a Child.” Together, we can nurture children and help them thrive. An essential part of the process in helping young children thrive is partnering with parents throughout the journey.
As partners, I truly value the importance of fostering caring and compassionate connections with you to help understand your child’s strengths and challenges as well as all the joys and struggles you are experiencing as a parent. Early intervention provides the opportunity to help nurture, strengthen, and improve children’s developmental pathways in life.
Play is the natural language of children. Through play, children utilize toys and creative mediums to express emotions, practice problem solving, heal from trauma, improve coping skills, and experience a sense of mastery. I hope to join you and your child on the transforming journey of growth, healing, and resiliency to nurture them, so that they may thrive.
