ABA therapy built for Carteret families
For Carteret families, balancing school routines, extracurriculars, and daily life is key. Liftoff ABA brings therapy directly to your home, working around your schedule-whether that's before or after school at Carteret Elementary, Carteret Middle School, or Carteret High School. Our in-home approach lets children learn in familiar settings, making skill-building feel natural and less disruptive to family routines. We coordinate closely with the Carteret School District's child study team to align goals with each child's educational plan, ensuring consistency between home and school.
Middlesex County offers a strong network of early intervention and special education resources. Liftoff ABA helps Carteret families navigate these systems-from NJ Early Intervention (NJEIS) for children under three to the Middlesex Regional Educational Services Commission (MRESC) for school-age supports. Our BCBAs attend IEP meetings, collaborate with local pediatricians and specialists in the Woodbridge and Perth Amboy area, and provide advocacy so families can focus on their child's progress.
