The biggest window for learning is open right now.
In-home early intervention ABA for Maryland toddlers and preschoolers, built around play, first words, and the routines your family already has.
ABA that looks and feels like play.
For children ages 18 months to 6 years, the best teaching happens inside the things they already love: blocks, bubbles, snack time, chase games around the living room. Our clinicians use naturalistic teaching, which means goals are woven into play your child chooses instead of drills at a table.
First words, gestures, and other ways to communicate come first, because communication changes everything for a toddler. And parents are part of the program from day one; caregiver training is a formal section of every plan, so what your child learns with us keeps working after we pack up.
- Naturalistic teaching woven into play your child chooses
- A focus on first words and early communication
- Parent coaching built into every plan
Families who usually start here.
Recently diagnosed
Your child was just diagnosed with autism and the evaluator recommended ABA. We explain the whole process in plain English and help you take the first step.
Waiting on words
Your toddler has few or no words yet, or communicates mostly through frustration. Early communication goals are the heart of this program.
Aging out of birth-to-three
Your family is finishing the Maryland Infants and Toddlers Program and wants support to continue past age three. We help you make that handoff.
What a morning with us looks like.
Warm-up and connection
Sessions start with your child's favorite things, so your child learns that our clinician means fun before we ask anything of them.
Play with a purpose
Teaching targets are folded into games, songs, and routines. To your child it feels like play; underneath, every goal has a baseline and clear mastery criteria.
Real routines
Meals, getting dressed, cleanup, sibling play. We practice skills where they are actually needed so they hold up outside of sessions.
A quick parent recap
Sessions wrap with a few minutes for you: what we worked on, what we saw, and one thing to try before next time.
