Meet Henley!

Henley is a sweet and happy boy with a playful smile. He enjoys school very much, is doing well, making progress, and approaches each new experience with curiosity. After a full day at school, Henley loves relaxing with a soft blanket during his afternoon nap.

Henley is also a social little boy. He loves being near his classmates, exploring new materials, and is beginning to notice and seek out the friends he enjoys the most. His face brightens when he sees someone familiar, and he connects with adults he trusts. Henley enjoys interactive activities, exploring objects with his hands, and joining in simple play routines. His favorite toys include teddy bears and trucks. He also enjoys watching TV, spending time on a play mat with his friends, and playing with sensory toys that make sounds or movements.

Henley continues to grow every day and is showing emerging independence in his mobility and movement. He is making progress in his communication skills and beginning to take more initiative in different tasks. He benefits from multi-sensory activities, predictable routines, visual supports, and movement breaks to help him stay engaged and comfortable.

Henley would thrive in a family who can support his ongoing development, celebrate his resilience, and provide the patient, nurturing guidance he needs to continue to shine. A family who can offer consistent structure and encouragement will help Henley reach his full potential. Are you this family? Submit an inquiry now!
