ABA therapy built for Edison families
Edison families know the rhythm of life in Middlesex County: busy school mornings, after-school activities at the Edison Community Center, and weekends exploring Roosevelt Park. In-home ABA therapy aligns with that routine, allowing your child to learn and grow in familiar surroundings without extra travel or scheduling stress. We work around your family's calendar-whether that means sessions after school, during breaks, or alongside Middlesex County's early intervention services.
For school-age children, Liftoff ABA coordinates closely with the Edison Township Public Schools child study team. Our BCBAs share strategies with teachers and therapists, ensuring that goals from the IEP or 504 plan are reinforced at home. This partnership helps children generalize skills across settings, from the classroom at John P. Stevens High School to the living room sofa. We also respect the family's need for consistency, assigning one dedicated therapist who becomes a trusted part of your child's support network.
Middlesex County offers a range of services through the New Jersey Early Intervention System (NJEIS) for children under three, as well as PerformCare NJ for behavioral health coordination. Liftoff ABA helps Edison families navigate these systems, providing seamless communication with your child's other providers-whether that's a speech therapist at the Edison Health Department or a developmental pediatrician at Saint Peter's University Hospital. Our goal is to wrap your child in a coordinated, compassionate plan that respects your home life.
