Children who are still working on attending, following instructions, regulating their behaviors, and communicating effectively, may benefit from a program dedicated to developing classroom readiness. Early Autism Services (EAS) has partnered with many preschools throughout the US to help bridge the gap by providing ABA therapy in the classroom. They work with parents to get their services funded so that they can be enrolled in local daycare programs with 1:1 behavior technician support. EAS also provide therapy in a child’s natural setting, where they can access their peers. They will also work with daycare/preschool staff so they can work more effectively with students on the autism spectrum.

EAS is in network with most major insurance providers, including medicaid and tricare. To learn more about our services and create a personalized treatment plan, call (615) 864-3327 or complete this form and a member of our team will contact the family: Nashville Client Intake Form

Every day life is a big adventure, especially when you have a child with a chronic illness.  We thought we’d share this opportunity with the community, in case this is something your family needs or has interest in doing.

Each year, Bert’s Big Adventure provides a five-day, all-expenses-paid trip to Walt Disney World® for children with chronic and terminal illnesses and their families. From the limo rides and chartered flight to the character-filled parties and princess makeovers, the trip is nothing short of magical.

To qualify for Bert’s Big Adventure, children must be between the ages of 5 and 12, live in “The Bert Show” radio listening area, prove financial need and have never been to Walt Disney World®.

Throughout the trip, each family is accompanied by a Bert’s Big Adventure liaison, allowing them to get the most out of their once-in-a-lifetime experience.
