"When things aren"t working for your child like they are for most it"s heartbreaking.Small skills feel like monumental challenges.Chatting with other parents is paralyzing. As they list all their child is doing your mind scrolls a different list, one of missed milestones.With that in mind it"s almost impossible to see what they are doing well.This is not what you had imagined.Of course you want the very best for your child.But fear and worry weigh on already challenging days.Then you see their face and it lights up your entire world.There"s gotta be a better way to help. way that connects with your child and helps them reach their next step.The Anat Baniel Method for Children does just that. We meet your child right where they are and spark their brain to learn and grow.The job of the brain is to make sense out of the multitudes of input coming in through all the senses, translate that input into information, and use that information to act in the world.For the child with special needs, the brain has a harder time turning the sensory input into information that they can use to roll over, crawl, walk, interact with others, or navigate daily life smoothly.This approach helps the brain do its job better by helping the brain perceive differences. At its most basic level that is what the brain is built to do. And we help the brain perceive differences through movement.There"s a whole world of improvement happening between each developmental milestone. In typically developing children it happen so quickly that it"s easy to miss.When there is a delay, it"s imperative to develop the vision to see those smaller steps. The more aware you become of the building blocks, the faster they grow into milestones.Without that vision each step feels excruciating and becomes an anchor around the possibility of improvement.Instead of working on the macro level, we learn to work on the micro level, on the ability of the brain to perceive differences in the first place.When the brain gets what it needs to do its job better, it then turns sensation into information and small building blocks into big steps."
