The Birth to Three Center

The Birth to Three Center is the Birth to Three provider for Racine County.  We provide support and services for families and their children, birth to three years old, who have special needs. The first years of a child's life are the critical years for learning and developing.  Our service approach is based on research that shows the importance of everyday activities that occur in a child/family life.

 

At RCOC, we know that every family’s needs are different, that is why our services are individualized to meet the child/families' needs.  Early intervention is successful when the family has the support to engage with their child.  The parent/child relationship is of utmost importance for the child's development.

           

 Our goal is to strengthen/develop child/parent relationship for fuller family

participation in everyday activities.

TESTIMONIALS


"The therapists were so kind, and provided services in the comfort and familiarity of our own home..."


We are so thankful for the professionalism, patience, and passion of all of the personnel, and recognize that Gabby would not have made the strides, and become the capable young lady that she is today, without the gifts of this great organization."

"It was an awesome experience. Not only did the nurse and I look forward to the home visits but so did my daughter."

"The therapists were very professional and explained the therapies they were doing, how they would benefit my daughter, and showed the nurse and I how we could do the therapies with my daughter.  In no time my daughter was showing great strides with her therapies." 

"I just can't thank all of the Birth -3 therapists my daughter had had enough."
