Day 28 – I’ve talked a lot about the village it takes to
help Baby Girl be her best self. She currently has three outstanding therapists
who have been working with her for the past couple years. The amount of growth has been amazing and so
much of it can be directly contributed to the hard work and dedication of these
three ladies. She works with the Speech/Language Pathologist for Language Therapy
twice a week in a small group setting and they work on conversation,
vocabulary, appropriate questioning, etc. Her Occupational Therapist sees her
twice a week as well, in individual or small group and can provide support in
her classroom, they focus mostly on these days on writing letters and numbers
with the appropriate spacing. Her
Physical Therapist has been working on core body strength and coordinating extremities
so that she can safely move up and down the stairs and throughout the school
building, they meet once a week. I
cannot say enough about how important seeking out the help of professionals is
for the development of children with delays – IT IS CRITICAL! These therapies along with caring teachers
have made all the difference for Baby Girl. #30facesofautism
