Meet Lori
- Speech Therapist
- Comfortable with pets
- Has a car
I am a licensed Speech and Language Pathologist who has worked with children with special needs for the past 30 years. I have raised 3 children as well. As a caregiver I can offer children and their families a professional who understands and can even carry out language stimulation activities and any behavior programs.. I know well in working with parents it can be a challenge to leave their child who needs extra understanding and care as well as skill. I am available on occasion when my schedule allows. My charge will be more expensive given my professional and personal skills.
