Le Parapluie Bleu is a multidisciplinary, bilingual pediatric center that offers Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), Physiotherapy, Occupational Therapy (OT), Social Groups, Training Programs in ABA and Tutoring services for children from 0-12 years old.
Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy is the most recognized treatment for Children diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), developmental delays and individuals with behavioral disorders.
Applied Behavior Analysis is the process of studying behavior in order to put into place appropriate behavioral interventions. ABA uses positive reinforcement strategies to increase socially significant behaviors such as: self help skills, imitation, play skills, motor skills, receptive and expressive language communication, life skills and pre-academics, among others. In addition, interfering behaviors that disrupt daily adaptive functioning are targeted and reduced, with the use of implementing reinforcement for appropriate replacement behaviors.
ABA Therapy programs are supervised by Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBA’s). The Behavior Analyst Certification Board (BACB) is the certifying body that grants BCBA’s their designation. This certification if known world-wide for individuals who have attained this credential. BCBA’s have a Master’s level certification, training and experience to supervise intensive interventions for children.
Our mission is to deliver effective early-intervention services to help children reach their full potential. We offer a safe, fun environment for our children to learn, to make connections and to interact with other children. Each child is paired with a certified therapist whose goal is to provide the learner with as many tools as possible to promote functional independence. It has been shown that children make the most gains when intervention occurs early in life, even though improvements can also be observed at any point. Le Parapluie Bleu offers patient-centered care and personalized intervention plans that target the learner’s unique needs. Services are delivered in a timely manner and data is recorded in order to quantify learning and skill-acquisition. Parents are invited to observe our teaching methods, so that goals are practiced in the home environment as well as at clinic/school. At Le Parapluie Bleu, every milestone is a celebration!
