Our five-year old needed support with her gross motor skills. Elisabeth Meikle worked with her over several sessions to evaluate specific areas to target, and to develop our daughter's strength and confidence. Elisabeth was kind, perceptive, and knowledgeable, and always met our child where she was at. She provided us with detailed descriptions of exercises for us to do at home and guidance on how teachers could support our daughter at preschool. We especially loved how she was able to conduct exercises and evaluations in beautiful outdoor spaces in Tilden Park. Since working with Elisabeth, it has been great to see our daughter taking on new challenges at gymnastics and running around and mixing it up with kids on the playground. Highly recommended!
We used Elizabeth Meikle for 6 months to help our third grade son with handwriting and visual perception skills. She was absolutely wonderful! I can't recommend her enough - kind, supportive, fun activities with our son and incredibly professional. She completed a thorough pre and post assessment and was able to coordinate with our son's school (private) so she could meet him there during the day to do the OT sessions. She communicated so well with us and with the school and our son's handwriting and confidence improved tremendously over the course of their work together. She is incredibly skilled at what she does and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for an OT for their child.
We used Elisabeth Meikle during the pandemic for our child who was clearly struggling in K with motor skills. She did a thorough assessment and communicated it with us then came to our house and worked with my son. She was friendly, punctual and extremely skilled. She gave great recommendations for tools we could use with our son and also communicated with the school as well. I always recommend her to anyone looking for OT services for their kids
