GBOT improvements My daughter was 15 months old when she started getting in home therapies through SD Regional Center. She was getting OT with Radiant Kids Therapy and has worked with Jackie for about 8 months. Jackie is a wonderful person, very patient and compassionate. She’s always ready to listen to any concerns that I have with my daughter. She’s very knowledgeable and informative I have learned a lot of techniques and strategies from her on how to help my daughter continue to develop her skills. She always comes prepared with fun and creative activities that kept my child engaged during their session. They met once a week for an hour for 8 months straight (we moved and had to pause services) and I have seen a lot of improvements on my daughter’s fine motor skills and social skills - She started with not making eye contact, not responding to her name, doesn’t say Hi or Bye, sensitive to anything new to touch and that completely changed in just a few months of OT. She’s now more sociable and independent, likes to feed herself using spoon/fork, brush her teeth, wants to dress up and put on socks/shoes, likes to paint and scribble. She used to not like playing outside because of sensory sensitivity to sand, grass or just concrete and now she has made a lot of progress and started to play outdoors. Jackie has helped my child and my family so much. We’ll always be grateful for the the help and care! She’s amazing and my daughter absolutely loved her and I miss seeing my kid happily running to her at the door whenever she sees her.

GBMy 2.5 year old has greatly benefited. My daughter is 2.5 years old and has been receiving PT for over 1 year and OT for over 2 months through Radiant Kids Therapy. Due to her medical condition and a Hickman line/port in her abdomen for over a year, she was significantly weaker in her lower body, having difficulty with walking independently. With her PT, we've seen vast improvements in her gross motor and fine motor function. She's running and jumping like kids her own age. With her OT, we've also seen great improvements with her social skills and independence (trying to dress herself with socks, shoes, and shirts). Thank you to Radiant Kids Therapy, especially to OT Liz and PT Stacie!
