It's Intensive Week! Just a reminder that all of our regularly scheduled therapy sessions and adaptive swim lessons are cancelled for this week, June 15-19. Looking forward to seeing a lot of growth and having a lot of fun! All intensive weeks are booked for 2026. If you are interested in being added to the wait list for 2027, please send us a message.

We are often asked if we work with kids who are non-speaking. The answer is yes! The majority of the children we see for aquatic therapy and adaptive swim do not use words. But, that doesn’t mean they can’t communicate. The best part of our job is learning their language and building trust, because that’s when the magic happens. Today, our buddy was able to go under the water on command, relaxed, and by choice. Trust, ritual and routine with a side of love ❤️

Happy Mother’s Day to all the incredible moms out there ❤️

To all the moms who pour endlessly into their children each and every day- the ones who advocate, comfort encourage, teach, celebrate the little wins, and keep showing up even on the hard days- you are seen and appreciated more than words can say.

You are doing an amazing job 🌸

Great offering from Exhale Babysitting Company!

Bedtime doesn’t have to end in tears—yours or your child’s.

If your evenings feel overwhelming, it’s not a parenting failure.
It’s often a routine, transition, or skill-building issue—and that’s where behavior science can help.

Join us for a FREE 30-minute virtual workshop where I’ll walk you through:
✔ Why bedtime is hard
✔ What actually helps
✔ Simple strategies you can start tonight

Perfect for families with children who need a little extra support 💛

Today we remember Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and his sacrifice to the Civil Rights movement. In his words, “Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.” Let us live that out today and everyday.
