"Having an educational advocate by my side has been an invaluable experience. Kayla helped me navigate the complexities of my children's evaluations, IEPs, and behavior plans, offering thoughtful feedback and guidance every step of the way. Her insights not only helped me better understand the process but also empowered me to be a more confident and effective advocate for my children's rights and protections. When I first began this process, all I heard were numbers and unmet expectations. All I saw were black-and-white graphs and data points, highlighting every missed mark. But my children are bright, colorful kids with unrecognized superpowers, and she was able to see them for who they truly are. Rather than focusing on the deficits, she took the time to truly get to know them, seeing them as unique individuals with strengths and potential. She approached their plans from a strengths perspective, helping me focus on their abilities, not just the challenges. This deep, individualized attention not only gave me the confidence to advocate for their needs but also resulted in suggestions for their plans that were tailored specifically to their academic and support needs. As a result, my children successfully transitioned from elementary school into middle school, knowing their unique needs are being met. This experience has been transformative, and I will forever be grateful for her support."
