About the Program

The Sprouted Sage Day Program offers individualized, strength-based support in a preschool-like environment for children ages 12 months to 7 years. Grounded in neuro-affirming practices, we prioritize each child’s unique learning style, communication preferences, and sensory needs. Our approach celebrates neurodiversity through respectful, inclusive, and child-led intervention.

Our multidisciplinary team, including Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs), Behavior Technicians (BTs), Classroom Teachers, Speech-Language Pathologists (SLPs), and Occupational Therapists (OTs), collaborates to deliver comprehensive care. Treatment focuses on functional communication, language development, social interaction, adaptive skills, emotional regulation, play, sensory processing, and motor development, all while honoring each child’s autonomy.

At Sprouted Sage, we foster a supportive, engaging, and child-centered environment where children feel safe, understood, and empowered. We move beyond compliance-based models to nurture intrinsic motivation, self-advocacy, and meaningful social connections.
