OUR PROGRAMS AND SERVICES

We understand the importance of preparing each child for success in the wider world, and so we provide a high ratioed, small group setting that mirrors more traditional learning environments. This approach eliminates the traditional generalization step of moving from one-on-one learning to learning in a group environment. This fosters the development of social, self help and educational competencies.

Social Development Program (SDP)

SATURDAY PROGRAM START DATE – 12 Week Program
January 11, 2025 – April 5, 2025 (NO SESSION February 15th due to Family Day long weekend)

Our Social Development Program (SDP) runs on Saturdays for 2 hours in a small group format. The program focuses on teaching skills to initiate and maintain social interactions, as well as problem-solving during play and emotional regulation, addressing key areas essential for successful social interactions. By targeting these skills, children are better equipped to navigate social situations with confidence. Clients are grouped according to age and skill level, allowing for more tailored instruction and support, ensuring that the content meets the specific needs of each participant.

Our passionate staff are dedicated to creating a holistic community environment to meet each child’s specific learning needs. The village is comprised of a highly educated, experienced and qualified team. Our staff are committed to on-going professional development to ensure the highest quality care is provided to our families.

The Founders/Executive Directors are Marnie Mills, Victoria Anderson, and Michelle Burke. This team has dedicated their lives to working with children with special needs and they are deeply invested in ensuring positive outcomes are achieved for your child. Each director possesses extensive knowledge and experience in the field of applied behaviour analysis, with a combined 40 years of experience.
