Daycare-based ABA support

Skills shouldn't stay home when your child doesn't. When your daycare or preschool partners with us, your child's therapy travels there — a technician works with your child right in their classroom, and everyone who spends the day with your child works from the same playbook.

How daycare collaboration works

With your written consent and the daycare's partnership, our technician joins your child during their normal day — circle time, free play, snack, transitions. Your BCBA shares strategies with the teachers so the same supports carry through even when we're not in the room.

Every center works a little differently, and availability depends on your daycare's agreement to host sessions. Tell us where your child spends their day and we'll tell you honestly what's possible there — and we're happy to make the first call to the director ourselves.

Therapy without another stop on your day

For working families, daycare-based support means your child gets their hours without you leaving work early or adding a third drop-off. Sessions happen inside the day your child already has, and you get the same session notes and progress reviews as every Sunbird family.

Does insurance cover daycare-based ABA?

Daycare-based sessions are ABA therapy — the setting changes, the coverage question doesn't. And because coverage depends on your specific plan, we check yours instead of guessing: send one photo of your insurance card and you get a plain-English answer, usually within a business day, free.

Where we offer daycare-based support

We offer daycare-based support to families in every Kansas and Colorado county, coordinated by the team nearest you. Pick your team city or county for local numbers, schools, ZIP codes and nearby towns.

Why daycare-based support matters here: about 70% of Kansas children under 6 live in homes where every parent works; about 67% of Colorado children under 6 live in homes where every parent works (Census ACS 2023 estimates).

Daycare-based support: questions parents ask

Can my child get ABA therapy at daycare?

Yes — with the daycare's agreement, your child's ABA therapist can work alongside the daycare routine, focusing on skills like joining group activities, transitions and communicating needs.

Do you need the daycare's permission?

Yes — sessions need your written consent and the daycare's agreement to host them. Tell us where your child spends the day; we're happy to make the first call to the director ourselves.

Can we mix daycare and in-home sessions?

Many families do — daycare hours for group and transition skills, home sessions for routines that live at home, like bedtime and mealtimes.

Is daycare-based ABA covered by insurance?

Coverage depends on your plan, so we verify your benefits for free before anything starts and explain what's covered in plain English.

That’s exactly the conversation our intake advocates have all day. Fifteen minutes, no commitment, and an honest answer — including “a different setting would serve your child better.”
