Ages 3-10 years old 

EXPLORE Pediatric Therapy is a private practice owned by occupational therapist Kimberly DeLaura, M.S., OTR/L who has 10 years of experience in the field. Putting a healthy and fun twist on therapy, EXPLORE Pediatric Therapy offers occupational therapy services in the great outdoors! Instead of your child receiving traditional occupational therapy in a clinic, we choose to provide treatment outside (year-round)! Why? Because kids spend too much time indoors, staring at screens, being under bright lights, not running around playing like they should be, and NEED to be for healthy child development. Therapy should be no different. 

This summer we are offering nature-based occupational therapy play groups. These are child-supported therapeutic play groups in a nature-based setting facilitated by a skilled pediatric occupational therapist.
