Highly Trained Pediatric Therapy Team

We pride ourselves on our highly trained and compassionate team of therapists, who are all completely devoted to your child’s development.  

Certified by the Joint Commission and authorized (“paneled”) to treat children with California Children’s Services-eligible medical conditions, Milestones is reputable, respected, and credentialed. Most importantly, we are effective at helping our patients reach the developmental milestones that will allow them to enjoy more independence as they grow.

Our team consists of:

• Occupational therapists (OTs), including a Certified Neonatal Therapist (CNT)
• Physical therapists (PTs), including board-certified Pediatric Clinical Specialists (PCS)
• Speech-language pathologists (SLPs) certified by the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association in pediatric speech-language therapy.

Individualized, Collaborative Care at Our Childhood Development Center

At Milestones, treatment sessions are individualized for each child’s unique situation, needs, and potential. In addition, treatment is collaborative between all three rehab services.

In addition to the direction offered by our referring pediatricians, our therapists set goals, develop custom treatment programs, and empower the family to augment the child’s development and therapies between treatment sessions. Here’s how we do it:

• Pediatric Occupational Therapy addresses skills that are the foundation for performing activities of daily living, such as feeding, self-care, play, social skills, visual and motor tasks, and safety awareness. Our occupational therapists work with parents and caregivers to set age-appropriate goals and programs for home and school environments.
• Pediatric Physical Therapy addresses the acquisition of age-appropriate developmental milestones such as sitting, crawling, standing, walking, running, jumping, kicking, throwing, and stair climbing. Our physical therapists empower families and caregivers with programs and hands-on demonstrations to support therapeutic goals that enhance the child’s performance at home, in school, and the community.
• Pediatric Speech-Language Therapy evaluates and treats children with a broad range of communicative disorders, including articulation/phonological disorders, stuttering/fluency disorders, receptive and expressive language disorders, social language disorders, selective mutism, voice disorders, and audiological impairments. Our speech-language pathologists strive to help each child reach their highest potential through personalized treatment plans designed to emphasize communication readiness.
