People are saying...
"Lauren's motor skills and hearing were tested from the very beginning through the AEA to make sure she was where she needed to be. It was amazing not only to have that service available, but to have them able to come to my home. As a mother of a preemie you're very aware of your little baby's environment, and I was so grateful to have the home visits instead of having to take Lauren to another facility for the screenings."
