ISO: Experience with The Floortime Center in Bethesda

[Anonymous]

We are considering a social group at The Foortime Center instead of preschool for our child, and we would love to hear from anyone who has used them. Please tell me about your experience there.

Hi OP -

My 13yr old DS has been in the Teen Social Group for the past year and he LOVES it! And t's been the same core group of guys the whole time....very little turnover, which I love. It also says a lot about the quality of the program. I have also seen zero turnover with the therapists. Obviously this is critical because you want the therapist to really get to know your child and his/her needs over a long period of time, that way they can really hone-in on their challenges and work with them to overcome them.

The center does an excellent job with strategically designing each social group based on the needs and personalities of kids invited to join the various social groups. I could be wrong but I don't think Floortime invites every new kid to join a group - it really does depend on how your child's personality and needs compliment those of the others already in the group.

If you haven't already done so I would recommend speaking directly with Tim Bleecker to see if your child might be a good fit for the program.
