Worried your child isn’t getting the support they need to thrive?

You don’t have to navigate special education alone.

I provide clear guidance about resources and options for your child’s special education journey, help you understand your child’s IEP, prepare you for meetings with confidence, review documents and communicate their findings, and advocate for the services and support your child needs.

Navigate IEP offers a unique perspective in advocacy, drawing on 20+ years of personal experience, and years of implementing IEP’s as a special education teacher.

Are you…

  • Feeling like you have no instruction manual to special education?

  • Struggling to understand your child’s evaluations?

  • Having trouble getting your concerns heard by your child’s school?

  • Wondering whether your child needs additional assessments or evaluations?

  • Not sure your child’s IEP goals accurately address their disability?

  • Worried about your child’s progress, or lack of accountability to their IEP plan?

You don’t have to reinvent the wheel, or take it all on by yourself.

Document Review

I understand both sides of the IEP team,
so I know how IEP goals are implemented in the classroom and at home.

As a special educator, I've seen firsthand how IEPs are implemented in the classroom. As a sibling of a person with significant autism, I've also experienced the education and disability system in the Bay Area from the family side.

I created Navigate IEP to help parents feel informed, prepared, and confident when advocating for their children.
