See Why Hundreds of Parents Trust Flywheel Centers
Danielle has a way of truly seeing my son — not just his challenges, but his strengths — and she builds his goals around who he is, not just what he needs. Tiffany works with him with so much warmth and consistency that he lights up when he sees her. She works with him so gently and consistently, and I’ve watched him gain confidence and new skills because of her dedication. I also like to add that their dedication has helped him find confidence, independence, and skills we used to hope for but weren’t sure he’d reach.
These two women have become such an important part of his journey, and I’m forever thankful. You can tell they truly love what they do, and it shows in my son’s progress. I can’t thank them enough. I highly recommend Flywheel Center, especially Danielle MaQar and Tiffany Jackson to any family seeking caring and effective ABA therapy. If you’re looking for a place where your child will be supported, understood, and genuinely cared for, I cannot recommend Danielle and Tiffany at Flywheel Center enough.
We are new to services, so our expectations were not very high, we're very happy at this point.Thank you very much.
