Children's House is a program for children ages 3-6 years with Autism.


Children’s House is devoted to providing children a safe and understanding small social skills environment in which to develop skills, regardless of a child’s level of ability, development or learning style. At Children’s House, ALL children are accepted and their uniqueness expected. Our activities encompass the areas of: 

  • Language development
    Social skills
    Group skills
    Gross motor
    Readiness Skills
    Communication

This is a flexible and varied program, including music, games, dramatic play, stories, creative activities and imaginative play, designed to develop a strong foundation for learning.

Daily activities include a variety of active and quiet individual and group projects. A typical day may consist of any of the following: free play, large and small group stories and activities, art or craft projects, dramatic play, sand or water play, blocks, books, games, puzzles, playground/gross motor time, and use of language software and computers.  Social activities are designed to balance active and quiet play.

Children learn to participate as a member of a group during circle time discussions, story time, and music.  They work both alone and in small groups while clinicians facilitate children's interactions with each other and their environments.

Children's House

Children's House staff understands that it is through play and exploration and personal relationships that children will develop their understanding of the world around them.  They adapt their activities based on observations of children's interests and their developmental progress.  The group environment is designed so that children learn through active exploration and interaction.

Each group in Children's House is run by a highly qualified team of clinicians including: RBT (Registered Behavior Technician), Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) and Speech Pathologist for up to 10 children. Children's House maintains a 3:1 child: clinician ratio and provided 1:1 for children who require additional support.

The Executive Director directs the program and supervises all staff.
