~ JoAnne K. Early Start Service Coordinator, 

San Diego Regional Center

As a mom to four children, including twins who were born prematurely, I have long related to issues of parenting from both a professional and personal standpoint. I understand how scary things can feel, and how important it is to have thorough and accurate information about your child’s health and development. I understand that as a parent your concerns and questions need to be directly & thoroughly addressed, and that your child deserves to flourish and learn in an environment that is safe, fun, challenging and comfortable.
