Occupational therapists treat children of all ages. They work to improve range of motion, strength and motor skills such as handwriting, dressing and feeding.

We work closely with your family to maximize your child’s function. Our therapists may suggest at-home changes, such as removing clutter or installing a wheelchair ramp, to help support your child. We may also recommend specialized adaptive equipment that will make it easier for your child to participate in daily activities.

Physical therapists work with children to improve muscle tone, strength, walking and other skills such as crawling, skipping and jumping. We may also recommend splints or braces and educate caregivers on wheelchair positioning, if applicable.

Like our occupational therapists, our physical therapists work closely with your family and your child’s pediatrician. They help maximize your child’s strengths so they can participate in daily activities.

Speech-language pathologists, also called speech therapists, help children who have trouble communicating. They may work with children who have Down syndrome, autism, language delays or other needs.

Our therapists help your child understand and express language more easily and fluently. They also help with oral motor skills such as chewing and swallowing.

Eating, or feeding, is a learned skill that begins at birth. It may seem natural, but it’s one of the most complex actions your body can perform.

Pediatric feeding therapy helps children of all ages who have trouble feeding and swallowing. We use feeding therapy to identify whether a child is simply a picky eater or whether there’s another underlying issue. We use play and food exploration to help improve food variety and mealtime routines.
