Shavanne has been working with our son for more than two years now, and we credit her with much of the rapid progress he has made. When she started, he had no words; today, he is speaking in complete sentences. Shav is professional, compassionate and energetic, and she has made it a point to not only report on our son’s progress, but to give us the tools and strategies we need to support him between sessions. She has earned our trust, and we couldn’t recommend her more highly.

We were so happy to have Shavanne's help during our first months with our triplets at home. Frankie and Mac, our two identicals, had some major issues with feeding, which had kept them in the NICU for nearly 5 months. They had terrible reflux which turned into complete bottle aversion. We were barely able to get them to eat 10 oz of formula a day! Shavanne provided a number of different suggestions to help them- and us- get through this difficult time. More importantly, she was instrumental in helping us transition to solids. She provided us with several tools to help the boys get accustomed to textures, and suggested various "first foods" along with a step-by-step timeline for how to introduce new foods. In only 4 short months, she helped our boys to make great progress in their feeding. Shavanne was always prompt, communicative, and so pleasant to work with. She understood the struggles we were facing with having multiples, and she truly cared for our boys and for us as their parents. I would highly recommend her for anyone needing feeding help for their little ones!

Shav (Shavanne) has been working with my son for over a year providing speech and feeding therapy three times a week for hourly sessions. I have been in awe and most genuine admiration of her professionalism, caring, dedication and skill level. Shav has been very resourceful, always coming up with new strategies and ideas on how to tackle a myriad of new challenges with feeding, drinking, and expressing language that my son has had. She has been the most reliable provider we have ever had, always making every effort to work around our schedule to provide the constituency that my son needed. She has the perfect combination of persistence, strength and ability to stay calm, personal warmth and true caring that sets her apart. Shav is very highly trained in a clinical setting. She has always been a resource for me as a parent, someone I could reach out to off hours when in need of advice. I recommend her without any reservation to any family, especially those with younger children who are struggling with the feeding and speech challenges.
