WeBuiltaSchool ThatProvesTheyCan.
Integrated specialist education for children with autism, ADHD, dyslexia, and developmental delays.
Speech therapists, occupational therapists, and specialist educators — sharing one corridor, one plan, one goal for your child.
The system wasn't built for your child. You've known that for years.
Fragmented appointments. IEP binders no one reads. Schools that accommodate on paper and disappear in practice. The gap between what your child needs and what exists is real — and most families are falling into it alone.

Parent Survey, 2024We had a speech therapist on Tuesday, an OT on Thursday, and a special ed tutor on Saturday. None of them had ever spoken to each other. Our daughter was starting from scratch every single session.
The school said they were 'accommodating' him. What they meant was they let him sit in the back and didn't call on him. That's not education. That's storage.
Not accommodation. Actual education — built around how your child learns.
Everything at Nurture is designed to eliminate the gaps between therapy and classroom, between assessment and action, between what's written in a binder and what actually happens on Tuesday morning.
One Integrated Plan
Every child has a single living document — updated monthly — that every therapist and educator reads and contributes to. No more starting from scratch.
Monthly Plan Reviews
Goals are reviewed every 30 days with the full team. If something isn't working, we change it next week — not next year.
Sensory-Friendly Classrooms
Every room is designed with sensory regulation in mind — adjustable lighting, quiet corners, movement breaks built into the schedule.
Therapists Beside Teachers
Your child's OT doesn't work in a separate building. They're in the classroom, co-planning lessons, intervening in the moment.

Every specialist your child needs — same building, same team, same plan.
No referrals. No waitlists. No driving across town. When the OT notices a sensory pattern at 10am, the speech therapist knows about it by lunch.
Speech & Language Therapy
Communication that goes beyond talking — covering language processing, social pragmatics, AAC devices, and reading fluency.
- Individual and small-group sessions daily
- Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC)
- Social communication and pragmatic language
- Integrated into classroom literacy blocks
They already know your child's name. Before you walk in the door.
Every family receives a dedicated team of three specialists before enrollment. They review your child's history together — so you never have to explain the diagnosis again.
Dr. Amara Osei
Built Nurture from a single classroom after watching too many brilliant kids fall through the cracks of a system designed for someone else.
James Kowalczyk
Specializes in AAC, social pragmatics, and working with non-speaking and minimally verbal children. James believes every child has something to say.
Priya Nair
Sensory integration specialist who designs every classroom environment with regulation in mind — before a child ever needs to ask for help.
David Moreau
Positive behavior support only. David has never used a punishment system and never will. He teaches regulation the way he'd want to be taught it.
The Nurture Team Promise
Before your first visit, your assigned team reads every assessment, every IEP, every evaluation you've collected. You will not spend your first meeting explaining your child's history. You'll spend it talking about what's possible.
Parents like you, who finally exhaled.
These aren't curated success stories. They're the first things these parents said when we asked how things were going.
Our son had three therapists, two tutors, and a school that kept telling us to be patient. At Nurture, within six weeks, he was reading his first full sentence. Not because he suddenly got smarter. Because everyone finally agreed on how to teach him.
I used to dread school mornings. My daughter would be in tears, I'd be in tears. We were both exhausted before the day started. Now she asks to go to school on Saturdays. I didn't know that was possible.
I've sat in more IEP meetings than I can count. I've smiled and nodded and driven home and cried in the parking lot. At Nurture, I sat in the first meeting and cried because someone finally said out loud what I'd been thinking for three years.
