Savannah attends the Listen and Learn Program at The Bell Center! Listen and Learn is a small group therapeutic program for children with cochlear implants and hearing aids who are learning to listen and talk. With the help of two awesome parents, The Bell Center, and the rest of her therapy team, Savannah has made phenomenal listening and language gains since receiving her cochlear implants 6 months ago. She points to her ears when she hears something new or unexpected, and she's saying over 40 words already! Her two favorite songs are "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star" and "The Itsy Bitsy Spider," and her favorite time is SNACK TIME. Please join us in helping to support The Bell Center, so that Savannah, the rest of the Listen and Learn program, and all the children yet to be served by this fantastic program can continue to learn to listen and talk at The Bell Center!

The Bell Center is dedicated to maximizing the potential of children from birth to three years of age who are at risk for developmental delay.The staff of The Bell Center begins the work of maximizing a childs potential as soon as the child is evaluated. This evaluation assesses a childs strengths and weaknesses across five developmental domains: gross motor, fine motor, expressive and receptive language, cognition and emotional/social. From this assessment, each member of the childs transdisciplinary team develops goals in each area specific to that child.The Bell Center follows a transdisciplinary approach to providing early intervention services. This allows all areas of the childs development to be targeted every time they are at The Bell Center. Through this frequent targeting of developmental goals comes success as goals are achieved. As one goal is mastered, the next appropriate goal is is targeted, ensuring that the child is always striving to maximize their potential.
