Guest guest Posted May 30, 2006 Report Share Posted May 30, 2006 We also provide DIR/Floortime. Training the parents to provide floortime sessions is an important part of this method.

I have contacted a consultant in DIR and this consultant told me that he will train the parents and the parents have to provide this therapy. I would like to know what's the best approach to get DIR/Floortime started.

Guest guest Posted June 22, 2006 Report Share Posted June 22, 2006 Where in the world do you find the time to do ABA 30-35 hrs a week, speech, OT, and floortime? The drive time alone would be the final straw for me! I'm just curious how you do it????
