Therapeutic Assistant
Blue Bird Day Employee Since 2022

• CPR
• Mandated Reporter

• I have worked in an elementary school daycare (BASP program with District 200).
• I also have some training in TBRI (Trust Based Relational Intervention).

1. I’m interested in pursuing a graduate degree, with something related to education, speech, or nutrition. I know that I like training and want to advocate for families.

The work I enjoy most is with kids. I had speech therapy when I was young, and loved my teachers. Having worked in a school, I see why it’s so important for kids to be well prepared for school. Additionally, I have studied a lot of Spanish and would hope to be able to use it and assist Spanish speakers.

I currently work at Re:New project, an organization that employs refugee women. I also am involved in an organization that offers camp scholarships for fatherless children, who often are in unique custody situations.

Bachelor of Arts in Communication,
Wheaton College

1. I believe a place that offers a variety of therapeutic methods is the best thing to allow kids to thrive.

Blue Bird Day fosters socialization, sensory regulation, and pre-academic learning in children ages 2–7 years in therapeutic rotations that simulate  preschool and kindergarten settings. Our compassionate therapists practice a relationship-based and family-centered approach, provide parent training, and collaborate on goals and individualized intensive treatment plans for your child.

We believe in a collaborative and multi-disciplinary team approach to therapy.  A team of occupational therapists, speech-language pathologists, dietitians, developmental therapists, behavioral therapists, physical therapists, and therapeutic assistants are created for each child to ensure child and family are fully supported and the best possible results are achieved.  

Options for individualized, group and virtual therapy sessions are available as well.
