Enter a zip code to get matched with caregivers that meet your needs
During my Level 2 Outpatient Pediatric Therapy rotation in graduate school at SLU, I treated many neurological and physical pediatric diagnoses. Therapy at St. John's Children's Hospital took place in a large sensory gym that included ziplines, ball pits, vestibular swings, and various sensory equipment for obstacle courses and exercises. Diagnoses list includes: Developmental Delay, Sensory Processing Disorder, Autism, Down Syndrome, Cerebral Palsy, Pelizaeus-Merzbacher, Rett Syndrome, Non-verbal, Hypotonia, Hypertonia As I was earning my two degrees' and learning more about children from a medical and psychological standpoint, once you get past all of the immensely complex medical terms, to me it simply becomes a deeper way of understanding them. Either by asking the right questions or solely paying close attention to nonverbal cues, I can better help and have fun with them. I believe this skillset sets me apart and is also something that is very close to my heart.
