About Brady's Bridge
Many kids in our community, with special needs, do not have an option for after-school care. This hit home for us when our son, Brady, entered Kindergarten in 2016. After several visits and phones calls, there were no programs or daycares that would enroll him. Because of his needs, he required a lower teacher to student ratio than the programs could offer. Brady is in a wheelchair, has a feeding tube and has been diagnosed with a seizure disorder, amongst other diagnoses. Traditional after-school programs are allowed 22 kids per 1 adult. It’s not possible to offer the specialized care he needs in this type of program. This not only creates a challenge for the children, but also for working parents that do not have a flexible schedule. How do they provide care for their child and maintain their source of income? Our program is designed to allow for lower ratios of children to teachers (6 to 1), so the kids can receive the care they need.
