“My son is 4 years old with a medical diagnosis of Level 3 Autism Spectrum Disorder. Kylie has been working with us for 6 months and from the very first meet and greet my son took to her right away. She has the most warm and kind energy. Her patience and compassion is unmatched. She treats my son with the respect he deserves and spends extra time thoughtfully creating lesson plans that reach him in the unique way his brain can understand new concepts. Since working with Kylie my son has sprouted pretend play skills, mastered body parts, alphabet and number recognition, shapes, colors, all the letter sounds, he is starting to spell his name, and now they are moving on to sight words. Outside of kindergarten prep she is working with him on household and social-emotional skills such as hand washing, requesting food, and advocating for his feelings and needs with visuals and gestalt phrases. It has been so reassuring for my husband and me to see our son progress socially and academically without the tears and distress of other behavioral therapies we’ve tried in the past. One of the most difficult symptoms of my son’s Autism is that he generally doesn’t like people and therapists, and avoids demands. But I can honestly say he is genuinely a happy child whenever Kylie comes to play!”
