Jeanne cares for the whole family, and actively seeks out ways to care for the neurodivergent community at large as well by coordinating play dates, collaborating with the library for sensory story time, etc In the classroom setting Jeanne made a HUGE difference in our daughter with ASD by helping to establish routines to make our girl more independent. Jeanne has always believed the best in her, even when we her parents struggled to have hope. Jeanne advocated for our child’s specific needs based on her own observations and our input, and helped us tailor a program that helps her maximize her growth while remembering that she’s still just a child who wants to have fun!
