One of the things I am most proud of is the creation of my social skills program for young children. Over eight years ago, WC KIDS’ CLUB was born. With Marni Gross, a talented speech therapist, by my side, the program grew to be one of the most successful and respected social skills programs in Westchester County.
We find many of our students had social challenges that interfered with their ability to function in the mainstream school setting. We realized if we could create a setting that mirrored what children do in preschool and kindergarten and keep the ratio low, we could give children the ideal environment to grow socially. We then proceeded to learn everything we could about teaching social skills to young children.
To all the families who have participated in WC KIDS’ CLUB, we owe you our heartfelt thanks for trusting us with your children. It has been our pleasure to “play” with them each week. Please promise to stay in touch. We would love to know how things are going! For those of you reading this and aren’t involved in our program, please feel free to inquire.
