"Alex is now in preschool. He walks,
runs, plays, laughs, and is beginning
to do something else the doctors said he
would never do—he speaks.
We credit the highly trained, highly
educated professionals at Kids Who
Count with many of the miracles of
his development.
They taught us and we taught him.
There is no better teacher than a parent
who loves their child and the best place
for a baby to learn is in the home."
Janae A. (Alex's mother)
