We offer real support and real solutions, built around a simple belief: every child deserves the chance to participate fully in the things that bring them joy.

What MOCO Families Say
"We have been going here for years and can't say enough great things about everyone here, from the director to the therapists to the admin staff. It feels like a family here. The therapists are fun, engaging, and knowledgeable and the gym has many fun activities that my son enjoys. Everyone really cares, here, and parents are involved in the process. We've seen OT, PT, and speech and have been happy with all of our providers over the years. Actually cried when we just said goodbye."
— Michelle, Yelp
"We have been going here since my son was two years old and diagnosed with the genetic condition. He is now six and Moco is without a doubt his favorite place to go. As a mom of a kid with special needs it's hard to find recreational activities sometimes, and even though Moco is a place for therapeutic work, it's also a place for fun! The environment is inviting. Therapists are knowledgeable and dedicated! Administrative staff is welcoming and always makes you feel like a part of the Moco Family!"

"I have worked with the folks at MoCo both personally and professionally and adore them. As an advocate, Moco is one of my top recommendations for fun, strengths-based therapies. As a parent, my child absolutely adores the Tiny Tumblers classes and visiting with Callie and Barbara. I will continue to recommend Moco to families and my daughter and I will continue to enjoy classes in such a supportive, inclusive space!"

"We have cared for both of our children over four years. Their interventions have been vital to our children's development, and their family-centered approach has empowered everyone, children and parents, to play a role in our children's success. They have advocated tirelessly for us to ensure insurance coverage, and they have gone above and beyond to make sure our children receive the care they need. We really feel part of the MOCO family."

Beyond One-on-One Therapy
Skill Builder Classes, Bike Intensive, and Summer Adventure give kids more chances to practice, somewhere that feels like play.
"We had struggled to get our son interested in biking for a while. He was very tentative about pushing with his feet, balancing, or gliding when we started these lessons. My son went from barely being willing to look at his bike to the cusp of pedaling independently over the five lessons, and he started pedaling the week after!"
— Beth, Bike Intensive Program Feedback
“We couldn't be happier with MOCO Movement Center. Lauren and the rest of the staff are incredible with our kid. He participates in the Skills Builders and Recess Ready programs, both of which perfectly blend skill-building with pure fun. The supportive environment has been amazing for his confidence and overall growth. Highly recommend!”
