Our son, Brandon, received therapies at DLC after he came home from a six month stay in the NICU after being born prematurely weighing just 1 pound 4 ounces. They taught me how to teach Brandon everything from turning his head to walking. It wasn't just therapy for him, they walked our whole family through this journey loving all of us and celebrating every step of the way with us. When he was nearly three, they noticed signs of autism and sent us to the right people for help. They are a valuable resource in our community and the only place I would send a special needs family. Today Brandon is successful because of his start at DLC.
DLC is a wonderful program for kids with special needs, and those without. Their highly trained and qualified staff look out for developmental delays, as well as teach a full age appropriate curriculum. They have certified nurses and therapists available during the week, as well as offering counseling to family members. This is truly a wonderful program for children!
This Daycare/Afterschool facility is geared toward Special Needs children/teens. They have Therapists on staff to attend to the children's therapies needed which is convenient, and a nurse on staff to take care of the medical needs.
