Came across service- care giver for your child when you are travelling. Not a babysitter – but some one who will come with you on your trip and help all the members of your family enjoy the trip. This could mean taking a swim with your child while you build a sandcastle with another or helping at a busy crowded theme park. The idea is to take a family vacation where in some cases it may have been difficult or impossible because of a child with special needs. The offer supportive services that will enable all family members to enjoy a travel experience.

Also featured on “Extreme Makeover Home Edition,” this camp gets rave reviews from families with special needs kids.

The Pattison’s Academy will be the first of its kind in the Charleston, South Carolina area to provide the support and choices that parents and special needs children want and deserve. Currently the organization runs very successful day camps during the summer months.

I quite like this blog, Cerebral Palsy Baby. It is by a mom of two girls, Shannon. Shannon has had two preemie babies, one of whom has been diagnosed with cerebral palsy. From her blog “Shannon lives near Seattle with her husband and two daughters. Darsie was born in 2004 at 28 weeks and has right hemiplegia cerebral palsy. Elise was born in 2007 at 33 weeks. ” You can follow Shannon’s journey since 2004 from the birth of her first daughter.
