What ABA therapy looks like in Todd Creek

Todd Creek in Adams County is a town of about 5,069 people. It is an unincorporated community — there is no city hall, but neighbors know it by name, and so do we. Families here often drive a long way for pediatric specialists. In-home ABA flips that: the therapist does the driving, and sessions happen where your child is most comfortable.

Our Denver team is close by — Todd Creek sits about 15 miles from Denver. That puts Todd Creek well inside our regular in-home driving range.

ABA here works the same way it does everywhere we serve: a BCBA-led plan written for your child, one-on-one sessions with an ABA therapist, and regular coaching for you. New to all of this? Start with what ABA therapy actually is, then what to expect at the first session.

Autism and young children in Todd Creek

Todd Creek is home to about 1,200 kids under 18 — about 230 of them younger than 5 — according to the Census Bureau's latest five-year estimates. The CDC estimates that about 1 in 31 children is autistic. Applied here, that is roughly 37 children in Todd Creek who may be on the spectrum — many of them not yet diagnosed.

Earlier is easier. If your toddler isn't pointing, answering to their name, or using words the way other kids their age do, it is worth a look now rather than later. Our guides walk through signs of autism at 18 months, at age 2 and at age 3, plus the M-CHAT screening many pediatricians use.

School-age kids benefit too — ABA can target the things that make the school day and evenings hard: transitions, communication, self-care, and handling frustration. Read how ABA and speech therapy work together, and our honest take on whether ABA is harmful.

Home, daycare or telehealth: what fits Todd Creek families

About 89% of children under 6 in Todd Creek live in homes where every parent works. For a lot of families here, the hours that matter are daycare hours — so we offer daycare-based ABA support, where your child's ABA therapist works alongside the daycare routine, plus in-home sessions for evenings and the skills that belong at home.

About 99% of households in Todd Creek have broadband, so telehealth is easy here: BCBA check-ins and parent coaching by video, on top of in-person sessions — never as a substitute for them.

Schools and IEPs in Todd Creek

Todd Creek is served by Adams County school districts, including Adams 12 Five Star Schools (about 36,000 students across 55 schools), School District 27J (about 23,000 students across 32 schools), and Westminster Public Schools (about 8,000 students across 18 schools). District lines don't always follow town lines, so check your address with the district if you're not sure.

School and ABA work best as partners. If your child has an IEP or evaluation from the district, send it along with your intake — it helps your BCBA write goals that back up the school plan instead of competing with it.
