A space where every individual is seen, supported, and celebrated.
Why We Exist
Families are often overwhelmed trying to navigate dozens of disconnected services, opinions, and schools. There’s no one-size-fits-all approach—and yet most systems try to force one.
There’s a growing number of children who experience the world differently.
They’re brilliant, sensitive, and full of untapped potential—but their needs often go unseen or misunderstood.
Little Oaks Center for Neurodevelopment is being built to change that.
We are creating a nonprofit organization in New York City designed to support children with unique neurological wiring and the caregivers who walk alongside them. This is not a clinic. This is not a school. It’s a sanctuary—a place to explore what works, connect with grounded resources, and find what brings ease and joy into the daily experience of life.
Little Oaks Center for Neurodevelopment is a new model.
Rooted in trust. Guided by the child. Built for the real world.
Our Story
Together with a team of advocates, specialists, and visionaries, Little Oaks Center for Neurodevelopment is here to be the solution so many have been searching for. A place where individuals are seen, heard, and truly supported. A space designed not just to offer resources, but to revolutionize the way we approach neurodevelopmental care—by centering lived experiences, integrating wellbeing, and making support truly accessible.
This is more than a center. It’s a new way forward. And it starts here.
Little Oaks Center for Neurodevelopment was born out of the relentless determination of families who spent years searching for the right support—only to find themselves navigating a system that wasn’t built for them. For our founder, Susan Globus, the journey was filled with endless waitlists, bureaucratic red tape, and an exhausting trial-and-error process—purchasing every tool, working with multiple specialists, and facing countless barriers, even when the resources were there. She realized that change wasn’t going to come from the system itself. It had to be created.
