Early Childhood
+ Healthy Development

Welcome to Connect 2 Kid

At Connect 2 Kid, we promote Healthy Early Childhood Development by nurturing essential Adult Connections within a child's support network, including relationships among parents, teachers and therapists. 

How can we help? 

Connect 2 Kid is a team of two sisters - a pediatric physical therapist and a certified school counselor - both endorsed by the Florida Association of Infant Mental Health. We offer programs for early childhood organizations that focus on family engagement, teacher-child relationship, and therapist-child relationships.
