"I Love our bonus program! It gives a ton of motivation to staff!" - Arrielle, RBT
"I love growing minds, bodies, and spirits at TheraTree Pediatric Services! What a wonderful and inspiring job! I love being able to see kids have fun while meeting goals to build many different developmental skills they need for everyday life. I have seen many successes with many different children even in my short time of being at Theratree Pediatrics. Whether it be attending to a given task for 10 minutes or transitioning without caregiver for the first time...We love to see such BIG successes that might seem so small to others. Even SMALL STEPS MAKE FOR GREAT ACCOMPLISHMENTS AND MILESTONES! I love to see children and their families leaving therapy happy and knowing they have accomplished something great! They always say find a job that you enjoy, and you will never have to work a day in your life. That is exactly what I have found in working for this company and with the many children here! I love my job and the rewarding nature of helping grow minds, bodies and spirits!" - Ms. Faith, MS, OTR/L
"There is a sweet client that has been working on feeding at our clinic. Today we completed a telehealth session during breakfast time. He had picked out all his food for his plate and was ready when he joined. He picked out peaches, blueberries, banana, pancakes, and eggs. He took at least 4 bites of everything! Mom even shared that he ate a whole hamburger yesterday. This is so big and we are excited that he is taking steps toward being able to eat food with his family and friends." - Kaitlin, MS, OTR/L
"My son started at TheraTree almost 2 years ago. At the time he was missing milestones and I could tell he had some sensory issues. TheraTree has helped Andy in so many ways. He has overcome challenges in his everyday life and has overcome some sensory issues. Cole has helped him at first to brush his teeth correctly and overcome sensory issues such as hair cutting, using a toothbrush and food textures. Cole has also been helping my son with being able to stay on task and stay focused when he is overstimulated. Cole has taught Andy to take turns and to be able to share with others. Since Andy has been going to TheraTree he is more focused, and is right on track. Andy has developed new motor skills and social skills. Andy has become a brighter kid. Thank you TheraTree and Cole for all you do for us!" Andy's Mom

My UNIQUE ROLE: I have a radical idea about my role in healthcare. The children in our community cannot be fixed. Because to be fixed, you must be broken. our kids and our families are not broken. They may be facing challenges; challenges that are real valid and affecting their life. I see that. It IS my role to give children and families access to living happy, healthy, and well balanced lived. This access is created through developing the skills and giving the tools for living life. It's an access for their VOICE to be heard, their BODY to move, and to become INDEPENDENT. The children and families who walk through my doors are not broken, they are perfectly imperfect humans and I believe this to our core. It is my mission to create a community aligned in this vision; to give children and families access to happy, healthy and well-balanced lives through removing barriers. Together, we grow minds, bodies, and spirits. - Jessica Hatfield, Owner/CEO
