Therapy spotlight
Ms. Kara is certified in DIRFloortime (Proficient Level)!
​​
DIRFloortime is a play-based approach that helps children grow (D-Developmental) by building strong relationships and following their interests. It focuses on supporting each child’s unique needs (I-Individual differences) while encouraging connection, communication, and social-emotional development through back-and-forth interactions (R- Relationship based). In DIRFloortime 202, I built on what I learned from 201 by becoming more intentional and flexible in my interactions with children. I developed a deeper understanding of how to expand play and communication, helping children move toward more complex thinking, problem-solving, and longer back-and-forth interactions. I also learned how to better read a child’s cues and adjust my support in the moment, while keeping interactions playful, engaging, and tailored to their individual needs.

Easter at Lake Reba
​
On Saturday, April 4th, our therapists served at the 47th annual Easter Eggstravaganza at Lake Reba in Richmond. The event was hosted by the Richmond Parks and Rec and over 1,000 people attended the event! We loved getting to talk about our services with our community while they celebrated Easter with egg hunts, inflatables, snacks, characters, and more!
