A Strong Start for Every Child

Building a foundation of growth, confidence, and independence from the very beginning.

View Our Services

We combine expertise with empathy to create individualized therapy plans that empower children. By understanding each child’s unique challenges, we use a variety of strategies to support their development.

01.

Occupational Therapy

Occupational therapy helps children develop essential motor skills, coordination, and self-care abilities. This therapy enables children to become more independent and confident in tasks like feeding, dressing, and other daily activities.

02.

Speech & Feeding Therapy

We help children develop their communication and feeding abilities. Whether your child needs help with speech clarity, language development, or feeding challenges, our therapy supports them in these crucial areas.

03.

DIR Floortime & The PLAY Project

DIR Floortime and The PLAY Project use a relationship-based approach to help children develop communication, social skills, and emotional growth. These therapies emphasize play and interaction to support emotional and social development.

04.

SOS Feeding Therapy

This therapy addresses picky eating and sensory food aversions, helping children improve eating habits. It’s designed for children who have difficulty with food textures, tastes, or routines.

05.

Sensory Processing & Reflex Integration

Sensory processing therapy helps children manage and respond to sensory stimuli. Reflex integration supports children in overcoming involuntary reflexes that can interfere with their ability to process and respond to their environment.

06.

Pediatric Orthopedic & Neurologic Rehabilitation

This therapy is for children recovering from injuries or dealing with congenital conditions. We work on improving strength, mobility, and coordination to help children regain independence and function.

07.

Onsite Splinting

We provide custom splints to support children’s hand and arm mobility. These splints help children with musculoskeletal or neurological conditions improve their function and recovery.

08.

Handwriting Support

Using the Handwriting Without Tears program, we help children develop fine motor skills and improve handwriting. This approach makes writing enjoyable and achievable, improving children’s ability to write clearly.

09.

Therapeutic Listening & Children’s Yoga

This therapy uses sound-based and movement-based techniques to improve focus, motor coordination, and emotional regulation. Children learn self-regulation and body awareness through auditory and physical activities.

10.

Emotional & Behavioral Support

Through occupational therapy, we support children in managing emotional and behavioral challenges. We provide strategies to help children cope with stress, anxiety, and emotional difficulties.

11.

Zones of Regulation

This therapy helps children understand and manage their emotions through a cognitive-behavioral framework. It teaches children how to recognize emotional states and use strategies to regulate their behavior.

12.

School Consultations & Teletherapy

We provide consultations for schools and virtual therapy sessions, ensuring that your child’s needs are met in both academic and home settings.

13.

Early Intervention Therapy (0-3 Years)

In-home therapy for children ages 0-3, provided through the Illinois Early Intervention Program. This service focuses on developmental milestones in the comfort of your child’s home, creating a safe and familiar space for learning.

What Our Customers Say

My daughter has been receiving occupational therapy from Shilpa on and off for over two years now. We’ve seen an incredible amount of progress and development. Shilpa is super patient, gentle, and always available for questions and feedback. My kids and I love her, and I couldn’t recommend this facility more.

We love Stepping Stones. Shilpa and her team are amazing. My daughter loves to come “play”. We have seen such progress in her since she started going for OT. Thank you Shilpa!

My son has been receiving both occupational and speech therapy at Stepping Stone for over three years. We were referred by a friend, and it really has been a life-changing decision for our family. The progress my son has made has been incredible! The staff is friendly, professional, knowledgeable, and always welcoming.
