Testimonials

“I trust Allé completely with
my daughter…”

“Allé is a rare gem. I highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for an experienced Therapeutic Support Specialist. Allé has provided care for my young daughter for over three years now — as a teaching assistant in a private daycare and as a support specialist. She and my daughter have a very close relationship and I trust Allé completely with my daughter's care.  

Allé feels like a partner, we often finish a session with a debrief on her observations. She is a trained expert in the field of childhood development and she is also a warm, nurturing presence.”

– Sally, Berkeley parent

 

“Allé’s natural love and respect for children is apparent…”

“We met Allé while doing Early Behavioral Intervention when she was our daughter's Behavioral Therapist (BT). Allé's natural love and respect for children is apparent when she works with them. It is not easy working with children on the spectrum, but she has mastered the delicate balance of being supportive and encouraging while also setting appropriate boundaries and expectations.

We saw great improvements with our daughter while under Allé's supervision. Our daughter was more responsive, engaged, and expressive after a few weeks of working with Allé. As parents, we also appreciated that Allé taught us strategies for working with our daughter through some of her challenges, such as hitting, tantrums, and non-responsiveness. We learned that Allé grew up with family members on the spectrum and it's obvious that doing so has lent great insight into how a spectrum kid's mind works. There were many times that Allé described a situation from the standpoint of my daughter that really made things "click," causing me to adjust my approach. 

We have been very impressed with Allé's expertise and dedication to this area of study and continue to draw on her knowledge. She would be a huge resource to any family with a child on the spectrum -- but all my child knows is that she has tons of fun with Allé!”

– Mimi and Diana, Emeryville parents

 

“Allé has a magical energy
to her…”

“Allé Cauterucci has worked with our son for several years. She has supported our son in preschool, worked with him 1:1 in our home and has been helping him with distance learning during the pandemic. Allé is wonderful. She treats our son with a deep respect for who he is while also encouraging him to grow and learn. She has helped him learn how to manage big feelings, interact with friends, navigate the world around him and attend to his school work. Allé has a magical energy to her, children of all abilities are drawn to her and she's able to make all children feel excited and included in group activities. Our son has thrived in his time working with Allé. We strongly recommend her to any family looking for support for their child with special needs.”
