We’ve been with Malama Pono Autism Center for a little over two years, and they have made such a positive impact on our lives. Both of my kids have received multiple services here, and the progress they’ve made has been incredible. My youngest attended the Kalo Preschool Program and was surrounded by so much love and support. When he graduated, I knew he was truly ready for kindergarten. He was confident, prepared, and able to attend an inclusion classroom after all the work he did in preschool. He was pretty much nonverbal when we started, and now he’s speaking in full sentences. The speech and occupational therapy teams have been amazing, helping with picky eating, big emotions, and everyday life skills. Communication has always been great too. I loved getting the daily logs and knowing exactly how each of my kids’ days went. If anything important came up we always received a phone call before pick up. Even with a child who can have some really tough days, she was always met with patience, care, and genuine love. The staff has been consistent, reliable, and truly goes above and beyond. Our BCBA has also been a huge help during our transition into public school, guiding us every step of the way and making sure our child’s needs were met. Parent trainings were always provided to help us feel confident using behavior strategies at home, and that made such a huge difference. It’s honestly a joy every time my kids see anyone from the clinic. Everyone knows their names and greets them with big smiles. You can tell the staff really loves what they do because the energy is always so positive. My kids have always been happy to go, which says everything. We’re so thankful for this team and the way they’ve supported our whole family. They’ve celebrated every milestone right alongside us, and I couldn’t imagine a better place for my kids to grow.
