What’s Coming Soon to Nurture by Design

Welcome to Nurture by Design! I'm so glad you're here.

This space was created with one heartfelt goal in mind: to support families and caregivers who are looking for guidance, clarity, and meaningful connection as they help their children grow. Whether you're navigating sensory needs, developmental differences, or simply want to learn more about how to use play and daily routines to support your child—you’re in the right place.

✨ What’s Coming Soon

In the weeks ahead, we’ll be launching services designed to meet families where they are, including:

• Virtual Consultations – Personalized support to help you understand your child’s needs and find strategies that fit your family’s life.

• Workshops & Trainings – Live and on-demand sessions that offer practical, research-backed tools for parents, professionals, and caregivers.

• Resource Library – A growing collection of handouts, visuals, and strategy guides you can access anytime to support your child at home or in the community.

• Introductory Babysitter Trainings – Simple, accessible tools to help your extended care team understand and support your child’s unique needs.

Whether you're just beginning this journey or have been walking it for some time, our services are designed to offer real help, and a sense of hope.

🌱 Our Philosophy & Approach

At Nurture by Design, we believe that connection is the foundation for growth. Our work is grounded in the principles of Sensory Integration and the DIR/Floortime model, which honor each child’s unique way of experiencing and engaging with the world. We focus on strengthening relationships, using play as a powerful tool for development, and creating routines that help families feel empowered—not overwhelmed.

You are the expert on your child. We’re here to walk alongside you—offering guidance, encouragement, and resources that feel supportive, not one-size-fits-all.

💛 We're Here for You

We know how challenging it can feel to find the “right” kind of support. Our hope is that Nurture by Design becomes a trusted, welcoming resource for families who are ready to learn, grow, and connect.

Make sure to check back for updates, new offerings, and helpful blog posts—we’re just getting started!

With care,
