    We help you understand your child’s IEP and other documents from your child’s school.

    It doesn’t matter the grade, the disability, or the school setting, if your child has an IEP, we help you make sense of it. We break down the special education terms, explain what everything means, and show you exactly what to look for so you can be sure the plan supports your child’s needs. Whether you’re brand new to the IEP process or have been through it before, we make it easier to understand, manage, and advocate for what your child needs at school.

  • We attend school meetings with you as your Parent Advocate.

    You don’t have to attend IEP meetings on your own. We attend with you (virtually or in person) to make sure your concerns are addressed and your goals for your child are clear. We help you speak up about the support your child needs, whether that means changing the IEP goals, adjusting services, requesting accommodations, or asking for a different classroom setting.

  • We help you request Special Education testing for your child.

    If you think your child needs special education support but hasn’t been tested yet, we’ll help you through the process of requesting an evaluation. We help you put the request in writing, explain what to ask for, and make sure the school follows required timelines. You don’t have to guess what to say or wait around hoping someone will notice. We’ll make sure your concerns are formally addressed.

  • Our advocates can help throughout the entire school year so you have ongoing support.

    Some families want help not just during meetings but throughout the school year. Our consultative services give you direct access to your advocate who knows your child’s situation. You can reach out with questions, send over documents for review, get help with follow-up emails, or talk through your concerns before important meetings. It’s like having an IEP expert in your corner whenever something comes up, big or small.

  • “ Professional and empathetic - Ms. Bradshaw gave me the support my daughter and I desperately needed. Before meeting with her, I didn’t know much about how IEP Evaluations worked or what questions to ask the school staff. Melanie guided us throughout the evaluation process and attended every IEP meeting to ensure we were well represented. Most importantly, she was empathetic to my daughter’s case and made sure her needs were prioritized.”

  • “Melanie was able to get our child the services he needed. Her letter was able to get the process rolling and get him in the right placement. She showed me a lot during the process. She was patient and went above and beyond to make sure that things were taken care of. Thank you so much.”

  • “Ms. Bradshaw’s commitment to my daughter’s needs were evident. She helped us both in the most difficult time of our lives. Her proactive approach, communication skills as well as knowledge of the industry helped me understand specifically what my child needed and what services needed to be addressed. I would recommend her in a heartbeat. She was truly a great listener, she showed compassion in my most vulnerable moments and she showed up to every meeting ready to advocate. I am forever grateful for the experience. Thank you Ms. Bradshaw.”

  • “Mrs. Bradshaw was able to get our son help for his ADHD and worked nonstop to get him the services he needed. She was at every meeting and really helped us through the whole process. We have learned so much about what our son needs and how to make sure his school is providing him the right services. ”

  • “I worked with Melanie. She was very kind and very thorough. She really helped me with my granddaughter and her problems at school. She loves school now.”
