Bringing Therapy Home offers fun, age-appropriate, interactive groups utilizing research-based curriculum.
Groups are designed for children ages 3 through 6 years old – this includes all children –typically developing children and children with needs (speech, language, fine motor, gross motor, or cognitive delays).
We utilize a visual schedule, movement, objects to represent vocabulary and concepts, visuals, step-by-step communicators, and a communication device so that all children, regardless of their developmental level, can participate.
We offer groups on Friday mornings or Saturday mornings. Each class is 120 minutes and occurs for 8 weeks.
Group size is limited to 12 children.
The total cost for the 8 week group session is $360.
Snacks are provided for children and dietary restrictions are honored.
Two weeks prior to the start of the group, you will be contacted by one of the facilitators to discuss your child’s strengths and specific needs of your child. This information will be utilized to plan and develop the activities used for the group sessions.
You do not need to receive current services from Bringing Therapy Home to register for the group classes. Group classes are open to the community.
The Friday group sessions are led by Marena Mitchell, a speech-language pathologist, Sarah Eller, an
occupational therapist, Michelle Sindorf, an occupational therapist, and Emilyjane Eichman, a music therapist.
The Saturday group sessions are led by Marena Mitchell, a speech-language pathologist, Michele Di Brito, an early childhood special education teacher, Michelle Sindorf, an occupational therapist, and Emilyjane Eichman, a music therapist.
If your child has an Individualized Education Plan (IEP) or receives services from an outside provider, please let us know what your child's goals are and we can embed the goals into the group activities.
In our "Spring 2018 Social Language Play Group," your child will interact with a different Jane Cabrera book each week.
We have adapted each book using objects and pictures to increase comprehension of the concepts within the story. We will utilize music and movement, play, and interactive language groups to expand on the weekly skills. Children will take on different roles from the book to increase their understanding of the concepts.
Each session begins with music and movement, followed by a large, interactive group activity to introduce the targeted skill and then the children participate in small groups. Visuals and adapted stories are utilized to teach the concepts. Each week, your child will also participate in activities that will increase their understanding of the main concept.
Skills such as role playing, sequencing, positional concepts, vocabulary, making associations, increasing use of spontaneous language, increasing the length and complexity of their language, answering questions, asking questions, expanding on language using descriptive words, verbal turn-taking, and responding to peers using age-appropriate language will be targeted (lessons are created based on the needs of the group).
