Hummingbird Children's Academy is a one-of-a-kind therapeutic enrichment program in the Western suburbs. 

The play-based curriculum is designed and implemented by pediatric specialists and therapists in the fields of speech/language pathology, occupational therapy, feeding therapy, developmental therapy, physical therapy, counseling and reading.
 
The Academy was created to provide children with a small group, therapeutic and educational experience. Therapist-led lessons and activities are geared towards children's social emotional development.
