School & daycare
Consistent support between home and the classroom.
When a school or daycare is open to it, we coordinate with their team and your family so the strategies that help your child are used consistently across settings.
Focus areas
Goals we may work on together
Goals are chosen with your family after an assessment. These are examples of what a plan can include, not a fixed curriculum or a promised result.
Consistency across settings
Shared language and shared expectations, so a strategy that works at home looks the same at school too.
Transitions in the day
Arriving, moving between activities, and wrapping up — the moments that often need the most support.
Participating in group routines
Joining circle time, following classroom routines, and working alongside peers where that is a goal.
Communicating needs
Asking for help, requesting a break, or signalling discomfort in a setting with many people.
What to expect
How coordination usually works
The shape of this service depends entirely on what the setting agrees to and what your child's plan calls for. A typical arrangement can include the following.
A BCBA leads assessment and treatment planning and reviews progress with your family. Day-to-day sessions are delivered by trained staff working from that plan.
- A first conversation with you about what is and isn't going well in the setting.
- Contact with the school or daycare to agree what involvement is possible.
- Observation, so recommendations are grounded in what actually happens there.
- Practical strategies shared with staff, designed to fit into the existing day.
- Ongoing check-ins with both you and the setting as things change.
Working together
Three-way communication
This service only works when the family, the setting, and our team are talking to each other. We keep you informed about what we discuss, and we discuss coordination and information sharing with your family.
- We discuss coordination and information sharing with your family.
- Progress is described in plain language, not clinical shorthand.
- We work within the setting's own policies and schedule.
- If a setting isn't able to host support, we'll talk through other options.
FAQ
Questions about this service
Does our school have to agree?
Yes. Support in a school or daycare depends on that setting agreeing to it. We can help you start the conversation and explain how we would work alongside their staff.
Does this replace what the school already provides?
No. This is intended to work alongside a setting's own supports, not to substitute for them.
Who decides what we work on there?
Goals come from your child's individualized plan, developed with your family, and are then discussed with the school or daycare team.
Is this service covered?
Coverage depends on your plan and any required authorization. Contact us to discuss your coverage and next steps.
