Testimonials
“Since the moment I was observing a few students with behavioral needs in the pre-school setting, and Laura walked in as a specialist, I knew she had it fully together. Laura was proactively involved, doing things I was writing down as suggestions to immediately set the children up to experience more success. Laura establishes rapport with ease allowing her to focus on goals in engaging way. Laura Kett is a graceful provider and has so much to share. I highly recommend her expertise at your service.”

“I’ve had the pleasure and privilege of knowing Laura Kett for over 10 years, as both a friend and colleague. She is not only extremely caring and knowledgeable, with many years of experience under her belt, but also a very creative and innovative practitioner. Laura has often impressed me with her new ideas, thoughts, and suggestions, regarding patient care; she seems to always be reading up on different topics, as well as seeking out new and interesting treatment ideas and approaches. She is also a wonderful listener and a very engaged team player.”

“I had the pleasure to work with Laura Kett for over ten years on support services for preschool aged children in a variety of community early childhood settings. Laura’s excellent skills in working with children, parents and staff were a valuable resource as we worked as a team to develop strategies that helped children be successful in their preschool situations. Specifically, Laura has experience with identifying sensory differences in children and creating effective supports, working with children who are picky eaters, and understanding and teaching others how to support handwriting and fine motor skills in fun ways.”
