Story

Many of you are familiar with our Livi girl's story. She has overcome so many obstacles, and today at 4 years of age, has blossomed into an energetic, bright, beautiful little lady.

DDI has played an instrumental role in Olivia's growth and development. The care and attention she has received and continues to receive from her therapists, staff, and teachers, have been such a confidence boost for her, and a comfort for us. 

3 months ago our Livi girl started talking! First it was a few words she would string together, and then it turned into a fragmented sentence, and now it's multiple sentences! Hearing our little girl speak is an answered prayer, and we know DDI gave Livi the tools for this to happen.

Not only is our little girl non-stop talking + singing, but she is also running around! From being on her belly and back for so long, to then crawling + scooting, to currently running around the yard and exploring the great outdoors!

DDI has brought out our energetic, chatty, joy-filled little girl. We are indebted to this institution that continues to play an integral role in Livi's life. 

If you feel led and are able to, please help us support DDI. All proceeds will go toward the support and funding of this incredible school.
