A Therapeutic Alternative to Traditional Preschool or ABA
DIR/Floortime Day Program (12-month)
Open Enrollment
For children (ages 3 to 6) who need support with regulation, sensory processing, flexibility, and social connection — in a structured, nurturing environment.
We understand that choosing the right support for your child is a deeply personal decision.
Our application process is designed to ensure thoughtful alignment — not to judge or exclude.
We review applications to confirm that:
• Your child’s needs match our therapeutic model
• Our program structure aligns with your goals
• We can provide meaningful support
