The Beginning of Something Beautiful: Opening Pediatric Connections

For as long as I can remember, I’ve dreamed of creating a space where children and families feel truly seen, supported, and empowered. After more than 30 years of working with infants, toddlers, and school‑age children across a wide range of settings, that dream is finally becoming a reality. I’m thrilled to share that Pediatric Connections is officially opening its doors — and with it, a new chapter filled with purpose, heart, and possibility.

Opening this practice isn’t just a professional milestone. It’s the culmination of years of learning, growing, listening, and imagining what exceptional pediatric care can look like. I’ve always believed that therapy should feel warm, relational, and deeply connected to a child’s everyday life. Families deserve support that honors their experiences, celebrates their strengths, and gives them practical tools they can use long after each session ends. Pediatric Connections was built with that belief at its core.

What matters most to me is creating a place where families feel welcomed the moment they walk in — a place where feeding challenges, speech sound disorders, language delays, and oral‑motor needs are met with expertise, compassion, and genuine partnership. My education and years of experience have shaped the way I work, but it’s the relationships with families that have shaped who I am as a clinician.

As I step into this new chapter, I’m filled with gratitude: for the families who have trusted me over the years, for the colleagues who have inspired me, and for the opportunity to build something that aligns so closely with my values. Pediatric Connections is more than a practice — it’s a supportive environment where children develop with confidence, families feel empowered, and progress emerges through meaningful, relationship‑based care.

Thank you for being part of this journey. I can’t wait to welcome you into Pediatric Connections and continue building a community where every child’s voice, feeding journey, and communication story is honored and supported.
