"Easter Seals therapistst are truly our biggest support system."

Eli’s Success

Early Childhood Intervention (ECI) has been a part of our family since before our first child was born. After a long fertility battle and a pregnancy against the odds, we discovered that our unborn son would come early. Eli was born 5 weeks early but perfect and healthy. We were immediately put in contact with ECI and they have been in our home since our son was 3 weeks old. They are an essential part of our family and we couldn't imagine life without them.  Our therapists are truly our biggest support system- offering encouragement, innovative ideas, and genuine love for our family. I had originally imagined ECI being an inconvenience and a strain on our family, but it has been one of the best things we could have done for Eli. They are a collaborative team and have become part of our family.

Eli is now 3 years old and will be going into PPCD soon. It brings me to tears that we have aged out of the program and won't be seeing the people that have become part of our lives anymore.

Our district evaluators are so impressed with Eli- he's worked hard and achieved so much in 3 years. His easy transition wouldn't be possible without our ECI therapists. Eli is one smart cookie and we wouldn't have unlocked his full potential without Easter Seals Greater Houston!
