Resource Room

Students and parents are needing more support for the hybrid method of learning that is the result of social distancing. This new approach to education has proved very challenging for many families.

We are opening a resource room for specialized learning support. Our resource room is led by a master's level special education teacher and can be accessed online or in person at the East Peoria Clinic. 


This program will assist students in organizing their school work, making a plan for the week, studying for tests, completing assignments, and implementing strategies to improve learning and retention. 


Support can be online or in person at the East Peoria Clinic. 


Available Fall 2020.

Professional Development

We have presented at state, national and international conventions on various topics related to language development, disorders, and augmentative-alternative communication. As much as we love the big conventions, we are most happy when we can collaborate and provide specialized professional development to schools, daycares and families. Contact us to plan a presentation for your organization.

Advocacy

Even before we are therapists, we are advocates. Child's Nature is interested in the success of students outside of the clinic. It is especially important for parents to be knowledgeable contributors of their child's IEP and 504 plans. Carrie Kerr holds a Certificate in Special Education Advocacy from William and Mary Law School. She attends dozens of IEP meetings a semester alongside parents and their children.
