Our Programs

As a Pediatric therapy agency, we provide speech, feeding, physical, and occupational therapy to children ages 0-18 years across Miami Dade County, including Prescribed Pediatric Extended Care (PPEC), daycares, preschool, as well as the home setting.

Populations can range from Developmental Delays, Fine/ Gross Motor skills, Receptive/ Expressive Language Delay, Articulation/ Phonological Disorders, as well as Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), Apraxia, Cerebral Palsy, Down Syndrome (Trisomy 21), etc.

Speech therapy

Our speech-language pathologists are Florida-licensed medical professionals and trained to evaluate, assess, diagnose and treat speech, language, as well as socio-communication deficits and disorders. Speech-Language therapy is used to aide children in their abilities to communicate with others in the community. 
 

physical therapy

Our physical therapists are Florida-licensed medical professionals who are trained to increase mobility in the lower extremities of children who lack gross motor skills. Deficits in gross motor skills can range from riding a bike, walking backwards, skipping, or simply walking in a straight line. 

occupational therapy

Our Occupational therapists are Florida-licensed medical professionals who are trained to help facilitate deficits in cognition, fine motor coordination, balance, visual perception, and/ or activities of daily living (brushing teeth, learning to tie their shoes, etc.) in children who develop delays in these areas of overall development. 
 

holistic treatment strategies

The culture here at A Bright Start keeps in mind that every child that comes through the door is different and may need a different approach that caters to what their specific area of need is.
