Dear Parent,
If you’re reading this, chances are you’re looking for ways to help your child improve their attention, engagement, communication, relationships, executive skills, and/or emotional regulation. You want to provide them with the tools they need to thrive in a world that may not always understand their unique challenges. The journey to finding effective solutions can be overwhelming and exhausting, but rest assured, there is hope and support available for you and your child.
Empower Yourself With Proven Techniques To Help Your Child Thrive
Frustration. Confusion. The desire to do everything possible for your child’s growth and development, but not knowing where to start or what steps to take.
- Are you where you want to be in supporting your child’s progress?
- Do you feel like time is slipping away while waiting for services?
- Are you struggling to find immediate ways to help your child at home?
And what happens if you just do nothing? If you continue without the knowledge and tools needed to assist your child during this critical period of growth and development, the ultimate cost could be delaying their progress and missing out on valuable opportunities for improvement.

Hi there! I’m Joy Manning. With over 25 years of experience, I have had the great opportunity to work with kids and adults from ages 1-81. I have worked in a wide array of settings including public and private schools, pediatric clinics, group homes, care centers, recreational settings, and orphanages.
Two decades ago, I wrote down my dream of working in an environment that is conducive to having the child’s best interest at hand, working with kids and parents in cooperation and trust, and having the resources to do what is best. I was frustrated with the constraints that certain working environments had.
Today, through working closely with families either physically or virtually in their homes, I finally feel like I’m making a big difference. Being able to empower parents with tools that positively impact their children’s development is not just fulfilling my dream, but also transforming lives one family at a time.
