Thrive Early Learning Center

My daughter has been at Thrive for over two years and we could not be happier with the care she receives there. We love that she gets all her therapies under one roof, with the therapists all working as one cohesive team for her. She receives both one on one intervention, as well as time with a group in a classroom-type setting. The administrators and BCBAs see my daughter daily, and know her extremely well. They have assisted us with needs at our home, and supported us when meeting with our school district. They truly love the children like family, and are as excited as we are when accomplishments are made! We are very thankful for everyone at Thrive. Our daughter cannot wait to get in the door when we arrive each day.

Thrive is truly an amazing school. I see the growth in my son every single day and it’s incredible how far he has come. I am so grateful for Thrive and for the tools, support, and resources they provide to help him become more independent and confident in himself. We are beyond thankful.

Overall I highly do NOT recommend. My grandson was in the program here for about 2 years. In the beginning the staff was very helpful and patience, but as time went on my child behavior started to shift. EVERYDAY during pick up the only report we would get was "he had a good day". Staff became very unfriendly, and seem very stand off with family.

Thrive is the best- After being on multiple waitlists for months, we had our son evaluation done at Thrive and immediately enrolled him in their program. The evaluation process was great- there was no wait, Dr. Jessica was very kind and explained so much to us along the way. Our son started at Thrive when he was a little over 3 and has been there for about 9 months now. Everyone we have met has been so incredibly kind and clearly care so much about all of the kids at the center. We plan on staying at Thrive for as long as we can and highly recommend it for any parents looking for a place for their little one with ASD.

Our experience with Thrive has been one of the most beneficial steps we have taken in our daughter’s autism journey. Her 16 month tenure at Thrive offered our daughter an abundance of growth, exposure, companionship, love, support, and education. We would stay forever if we could! But as all good things must come to an end, Thrive has given our daughter the steps needed to independently move forward and continue to THRIVE on her own. We are beyond grateful for the wonderful staff, loving teachers, impeccable facility, and passion they put into each and every student there. I will always be indebted to them for the gift they have given our family by helping our daughter reach her potential to soar.

If you are looking for a great ABA program for your child , Thrive ELC is it !! They really take pride in the children that they service. Jackie and Kristin truly care and want the best for our children and they train their BCBAS to exude just the same. My son made so many strides since starting Thrive. They made me feel comfortable to ask questions and treated my son with so much love . Lauren in OT is phenomenal anything I needed for my child she made sure it was done and I couldn't thank her enough for that . Again, to the Thrive team thank you so much for everything !!

Our family had a wonderful experience at Thrive Early Learning Center. We were referred to Dr. Jessica Emick and decided to bring our 3 year old son to Thrive from PA. We are very happy that we did. Not only did Dr. Jessica work with our schedule to get us in for an evaluation almost immediately, she was very considerate of our travel time coming from another state. Dr. Jessica couldn’t have been kinder or more supportive of me and my husband as we began the evaluation process. There are a lot of emotions involved and Dr. Jessica was empathetic toward us while remaining extremely professional. The staff (SLP and OT) assisting Dr. Jessica with the eval were also very good. We felt very comfortable and confident with the staff during the entire process. Dr. Jessica’s follow up post evaluation has been incredible. We have felt extremely supported every step of the way. I cannot recommend Dr. Jessica Emick and Thrive Early Learning Center enough. I’m extremely thankful for this experience during what can be a very emotional time for families.

Thrive has been a blessing to my little one who made tremendous progress with early intervention. Thanks to thrive her academy skills have grown stronger and we have been able to recognize her strengths. My little one graduates from Thrive this year with skills all above her age grade. Jackie helped me a lot when I was new to all this, patiently answered all my questions and addressed all my worries/concerns. I almost had instant responses to all my requests be it a upgrading goals, scheduling an observation, change in activities and there hasn't been a single day I have not thanked her in my mind. I highly recommend this institute to all kids who need early intervention to go to this school and be ensured that your child is in safe hands.

My son attended Thrive for three years. We love Jackie and the team SO.MUCH. They treated my son like their own child and loved him. He made countless strides in mastering more and more skills and he has shown us so much of what he is capable of. It is because of Thrive and all they have taught him and helped to do and overcome. I will forever recommend Thrive to families because I am so grateful for the love and the learning they showered on my sweet boy.
