Testimonials

"Ms. Nicky, We would like to take this opportunity to thank you from the bottom of our heart for the wonderful job that you did for our daughter Christina. You came in at a time when we did not know what to do. You accomplished what other therapists could not. Through your guidance, Christina now listens, follows directions, pays attention, can assemble and build, and do so many things on her own now. It may interest you to know that she is now saying words like "bye bye", "thank you", and trys to repeat everything we say including trying to sing. She also cleans up and puts all her Legos into the box after playing with them. Her social attitude toward her peers is also encouraging and she loves to play. Even though there is much to be done, we have seen a lot of progress in her. I know that very soon all the words will start flowing and she will call you herself and say thank you Nicky for a job well done. We are grateful to have our daughter back." Christina's Parents, 2010

"I have been receiving ABA therapy services from All Kids First over the past year for my son who has been diagnosed with autism and I am very much satisfied with the therapists and the quality of service. Nicky is very friendly and cordial to work with. We have seen improvements in our son since the therapy started. I know there is still a long way to go but I am very optimistic about the progress of my son.....” Mrs. Sood, 2010

“Undoubtedly, Nicky has a gift. We could dub her “The toddler Whisperer”. Since Nicky has been working with my son, I have seen a huge improvement in his ability to listen and follow directions, his communication and his attention span. It’s obvious that Nicky truly cares about the future of my son and she has a wealth of information about all kinds of behavioral disorders. She is very creative and is able to keep him engaged during our sessions regardless of his mood. Every week she leaves me with information and ideas to work on with him so that even when she’s not here, we’re benefiting from her wisdom. My son is excited every time she walks through our door. We’re so thankful to have Nicky working with our son.” Lauren 2010

Ever since our son has been diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) we have been searching for a high quality Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapists applying latest strategies and techniques with a caring and enthusiastic attitude.

All Kids First (AKF) was found to be all of the above. One outstanding features of AKF, apart from their very reasonable & competitive pricing was their ability to provide in-home therapies.

Within a few months we started noticing changes. Our son who would normally refuse to communicate was motivated to say a few words. Noticing these positive changes we increased his number of hours of therapy to 10-12 hrs a week. We wanted the therapists to focus on certain aspects of our son’s development like social interaction; ability to wait; expressive skills; be able to complete tasks.

AKF has always provided us with therapists who were highly qualified and knowledgeable enough to handle the most difficult situations. The therapists were aggressive & motivated to put together customized programs to cater to our son’s individual needs. All this has greatly enhanced our 7 year old’s ability to progress in a path with the hope one day he will get out of this situation.

I am glad to have found AKF and I will strongly recommend their services to anyone and everyone who has a need with any part of child developmental assistance. Once again Nicky please accept my sincere gratitude on behalf of AKF for providing these services. Parents of Ani’2010

"I can honestly say that I really enjoyed having Nicky as a therapist for my daughter, Ariana. She not only taught Ariana to play with toys correctly but she worked with her speech, and following directions as well. She taught me a lot on how to help my daughter as well and for that I am eternally grateful. I wish I could've kept Nicky on longer (even though Ariana goes to school now), she is just a joy to have around. Thanks Nicky for your sweet personality and passing on your knowledge!" Ana Martinez-Smith 2009

"Nicky, to me is a Super Model. Let me explain. Last spring, my three year old Ayush was diagnosed with mild to moderate Autism. My whole world was falling apart. I had not even heard the word ever before in my life. I went on the internet and discovered this great lady Nicky, who promised me to offer her services at my residence. This began our beautiful friendship. Nicky, we all know, who have met her looks Super :) Not only that, the mental support and advice she gave me was super too. Plus, she knows her job well. We began with Ayush speaking just a few single words to forming sentences now. We worked on his fine motor skills , where there was no grasp to him tracing shapes now. There has been progress and we have a long way to go, but along this unknown and emotionally drawing path, I was never alone and never will be. I have Nicky. I have her friendship, and most importantly I see the love she has for Ayush. She is a therapist is every form. Last summer, Nicky even held a summer camp for kids in her Suwanee location. They had organized and structured routines where they did a variety of activities just like a school setting. Ayush gained a lot from that too. He started becoming more social towards his peers and teachers. He enjoyed doing Yoga which was a great bonus. Nicky, is a very humble and hard-working human being. Its not easy running a home and her ABA services which such efficiency. Even in her toughest day, she won’t let go of her smile. That makes her a role-model whom I look up to. To sum up, her super work makes her my role model and she is nothing less than a Super Model! Thanks Nicky for all that you do and being yourself. " Shruti Kapur 2009

"We love Ms. Nicky from All Kids First! We had been through a couple of therapists that didn't work out and so I was apprehensive about trying another. I was at the end of my rope. When Ms. Nicky came to our house, my child fell in love. He was so comfortable and playful with her right away. You could immediately see the connection. She was extremely knowledgeable and my child learned so much and so quickly. I was amazed at how he caught on, because he hadn't with the others. I am so glad that we found her. At All Kids First they do just that; put all the kids 1st." Mom to Andrew, now age 3 1/2, 2009

Jalon has been working with Nicky for only a few months, and I'm so proud of the improvements that I'm seeing in him. The first visit was so amazing, I saw that her skills and techniques were working. She had only been with him for an hour, and within that hour she had taught him "quiet hands". I love the quiet hands technique that she uses. Jalon and I are both learning from Nicky, I would recommend Nicky and All Kids First to every parent that has a special child. Kim 2009

Dear Nicky, I would like to say thank you for your special attention for my son Can. I heard about your ABA therapy during our visit to Atlanta, we were so lucky to find out about you and to be able to receive private ABA therapy from you. After a few sessions with you, Can was able to keep eye contact, he was laughing with you, he was more interactive and initiative and his fine motor skills also developed tremendously! It was great to see you two sitting there and enjoying small conversations even though we are coming from Turkey, he started communicating with you which I thought was fantastic! You made a miracle, my son improved a lot and I hope to come to Atlanta again to be able to benefit more of your outrageous therapies which my son really enjoys. Sincerely Yours, Esra G. March‘2009

All Kids First has made a tremendous impact in helping our daughter Gigi reach her potential. In our opinion, the staff is the best in this field. We can not thank everyone at All Kids First enough for helping our family during this important time in our lives. Brian-Sherri McClellan , 2008

Thank you to all the therapists who worked with Joshua. He improved a lot and was so comfortable with everyone. I wish he could spend more time with everyone. I would like to thank everyone again for being so special. He will miss you all so much. Sandra & Bob Rukhnaraine, 2008

All Kids First offers excellent growth opportunities for toddlers. Our kids have learned to talk and interact with other children their ages. We would recommend All Kids First to any parents. Thank you. Shan Hicks 2008

"We love All Kids First. Nicky has been great with Audrey. Audrey has made such great progress in her speech and we’re so thankful to All Kids First. I would recommend anyone needing these services to here." Jenn Spellacy 2007

What a wonderful choice it was for Jacob to attend All Kids First! The staff was not only highly educated but also caring and dedicated to teaching exactly what my son needed to learn most. They were able to capitalize on his strengths and use them to help in weaker areas, all the while making the tasks fun and exciting. What’s best though, is that his communication skills literally exploded and his imagination began to blossom! He now practically talks my ears off and loves to play pretend play with his brother! I highly recommend All Kids First to any parent wanting the highest quality services with their kids. Paula Myers 2007

We’re very pleased with the progress Nathan has made. He has learned to say “key, car, shoes, and on” He also learned to wave “bye “ and clean up after himself. They also do yoga and he has brought some yoga moves home. We do yoga to calm down and relax. We would highly recommend All Kids First to any parents that want to see their child grow and learn with the teaching and guidance of qualified professionals. Amy Lewis, 2007
