LITTLE BEEGINNINGS

Little Beeginnings is our therapeutic day program that focuses on early intervention by providing early systematic learning for preschool aged children.

Our program is designed to build strong foundational communication, learner readiness, academic, social and play skills in young learners with autism and other language related disorders.

Students are engaged in learning activities in natural play environments as well as in structured, seated work sessions and groups as appropriate to their age and ability levels. One-on-one instruction allows a learner’s motivation to be captured in order to teach and reinforce new skills.

We continually monitor progress and the mastery of goals and targets of our students by collecting data daily.

Parents receive regular progress reports, along with periodic meetings.

Little Beeginnings Program incorporates the principles of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) with a focus on B.F. Skinner’s Analysis of Verbal Behavior (VB).

The program captures a learner’s motivation in order to teach and reinforce new skills.
