Nurturing growth, naturally
Welcome to From the Ground Up, where we blend evidence-based occupational therapy with child-led, nature-rich play. Discover how our unique approach supports your child's social-emotional growth, motor coordination, executive functioning, attention, and cognitive development. From the Ground Up helps children grow, thrive, and develop essential life skills through play in the natural world. Our approach integrates sensory-rich environments, movement challenges, and collaborative problem solving—all in nature.
Gross and fine motor coordination
Enhance physical abilities through engaging outdoor activities that challenge and develop both large and small muscle groups.
Social-emotional development
Foster emotional regulation, empathy, and cooperative skills through nature-based interactions and guided play.
Cognitive growth and attention
Stimulate curiosity and problem-solving abilities with hands-on, nature-based learning experiences that improve focus and executive functioning.
Executive functioning
