Dr. Laura Mraz, OTD, OTR/L
Executive Director, Occupational Therapist

In 2007, I established Eyas Landing where I first provided developmental therapy services for children in Early Intervention and have since grown the company to offer a wide range of therapy services that are provided in the clinic, home, school, daycare and virtually.”

Sarah H, MOT, OTR/L
Regional Clinic Director, Occupational Therapist

“I became intrigued with the field of occupational therapy while providing childcare for a boy who had cerebral palsy. I had the opportunity to join his therapy sessions and was blown away by the impact occupational therapy had in helping build his independence and engagement in everyday life.”

Dr. Jennifer K, PT, DPT
Clinic Director, Physical Therapist

My younger brother was in Early Intervention and outpatient therapy for most of my childhood. I loved participating in his sessions whenever the therapists let me! The impact those therapists had on our family has always stayed with me… once I found Blue Bird I knew it was the role for me.”

Renee A, MS, OTR/L
Assistant Clinic Director, Occupational Therapist

“I have wanted to be an occupational therapist since middle school when I would volunteer in a nursing home. I discovered pediatric therapy doing my observation hours and fell in love with the career! Early childhood is my favorite setting to work in.”

Amanda L, MA, CCC-SLP
Director of Program Development, Speech-Language Pathologist

“I received speech therapy as a child… While I can remember how my difficulty communicating affected me, I remember even more so the impact my speech-language pathologist had on me... I strive to do the same for other children by empowering my clients, and their families, to achieve their full potential…”

Molly R, MS, DT
Assistant Director of Program Development, Developmental Therapist

“I have worked with young children, families, and educators for over 10 years. Throughout my volunteer and work opportunities, I quickly learned the importance of positive early childhood experiences on later development and the impact relationships have on children throughout their years.”
