January IEP meetings come fast after the holidays.
Take 10 minutes to jot down:

• What didn’t
• New concerns or strengths
Small steps now create smoother meetings next month.

As a teacher, I used to fear reaching out to parents. I was afraid asking for help made me look weak. But real progress happens when parents and teachers work together. I help build that bridge.

Back from recovery and ready for a strong school year. The first day can feel overwhelming, especially with IEPs. You do not have to go through it alone. I am here to help.

If the school says “we’ve already decided” before you speak, that is a red flag. You are an equal member of the IEP team. Your input must shape the plan, not just respond to it.

If a school says they cannot provide services because of staffing, that is a red flag. Your child’s right to support does not depend on convenience. I can help you respond.

If the school says your child’s IEP was written by a system or pulled from a template, that is a red flag. IEPs must be individualized. Your child is not a preset.

If your IEP meeting felt one-sided or rushed, that is a red flag. You should be part of the decision-making. If something feels off, I can help you speak up and get clarity.

Yesterday, Joey Chestnut won the Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest again. He made it look easy, but it takes strategy and support. Same with IEPs. You do not have to take it all on at once. I can help.

Happy 4th of July. Today we celebrate freedom, and for families in special education, that means the right to advocate for what your child truly needs. That is a freedom worth fighting for.

Taking this 4th of July weekend to rest and appreciate what I have and who I’m with. Rest isn’t a luxury. It’s part of showing up fully—at home and in advocacy.

Exciting news—I’ve officially been hired as an RBT! This role deepens the hands-on experience I bring to families through IEP advocacy. More tools, more insight, same mission.

Saw a parent at the pool doing everything right—and still having a tough moment. Needing help doesn’t make you a bad parent. It makes you human. I’m here to help with the IEP part.

Driving to NC to see my parents this week has me thinking—I got where I am because I had a strong support system. That’s what I want to be for families in the IEP process. You don’t have to do it alone.

You don’t have to agree with everything in your child’s IEP. You can question goals, challenge placement, and say “I’m not signing yet.” Your voice matters. I’ll help you use it.

I was told 1:1 support in gen ed is more restrictive than 3:1 in a self-contained class. A teacher friend corrected me—and they were right. LRE is about access, not staffing ratios. If schools are confused, I can help.

IEPs aren’t just paperwork—they’re promises to support your child. If those promises are being overlooked or watered down, I can help make sure they’re kept.

If you’re worried about your child’s IEP or progress, your concerns are valid. You don’t need to stay quiet. You just need support to be heard. I’m here for that.

You’re allowed to ask questions in IEP meetings. You’re allowed to ask for data, push back, and say “this doesn’t feel right.” Your voice matters. I’m here to help you use it.

You don’t need all the answers to be a great parent. You just need support. I help families navigate the IEP process with clarity and confidence. You’ve got the heart. I’ll help with the roadmap.

ABA helps us understand behavior. FBAs find out why it happens. BIPs lay out how to support change. If your child’s plan isn’t working, I’ll help you make sure it’s done right.

Before 1975, over 1 million kids with disabilities were denied public education. That’s why IDEA was created—to guarantee their right to learn. If you need help using those rights, I’m here.
