Music ignites all areas of child development, including the cognitive, verbal, physical and social-emotional skills to improve school readiness. It encourages the body and mind to work together and develops positive behaviors that your child will carry with them beyond kindergarten. Exposing children to music during early development gives them additional tools to learn crucial skills, such as the sounds and meanings of words, enhanced motor functions and strong memory skills.

While music facilitates effective adaptation of the skills below, it also infuses students with joy, which they are encouraged to express through movement and creating music themselves. Introducing these creative forms of learning and interacting to your child as early as possible opens developmental doors that may not be available to them in a traditional school readiness program.

🎧 The Safe and Sound Protocol (SSP) is an at home program that can be used as an additional tool to help enhance your child’s development.

Music is a key component to the Safe and Sound Protocol. It is an evidence-based therapeutic tool that can reset your nervous system and return it to safety. We use specially filtered music to stimulate the vagus nerve in order for you to feel safe again! This technique works well alongside other therapies, and is suitable for all ages.

This benefits your child by helping them to work through trauma easier, to be less anxious and to be able to process their environment easier and not be overwhelmed with everything that's going on around them, and much more.

We understand how impactful this program is so we offer a couple payment options. Through Private Pay or the Family Direct Program through Medicaid.

Contact us to learn more and how to get started.

Cognitive development is all about how you learn and think. It's not just memorizing facts, but understanding the information so it can be put to use in your everyday life, including:

🧠 Understanding cause and effect,

🧠 Visual discrimination, matching, comparing, sorting, and organizing

🧠 Developing an increased attention span,

🧠 Problem solving,

🧠 Simple reasoning,

🧠 Understanding fact & fiction (or the difference between a truth & a lie),

🧠 Asking questions.

Preschoolers may be small, but they're full of big questions. They love to collect things and like practicing the same thing again and again. Pre-schoolers are also risk takers who try new things often.

These efforts develop their cognitive abilities and enhance their motor skills, improving characteristics that should be embraced, encouraged, and celebrated!

As children grow and develop, they should be able to improve their ability to focus on tasks at hand, remember information more easily and think critically. Cognitive skills help children better understand relationships between ideas as well the process of cause-and-effect; this leads them towards a greater overall analytical skill set.
