Welcome to SENDsational Learning
SENDsational Learning is an independent practice providing early developmental support to children and families within the North Yorkshire, Middlesbrough, Redcar & Cleveland area.
We focus on providing a small steps approach to learning for children who have an early diagnosis of Special Educational Needs & Disabilities & for children who are showing signs of developmental delay.
Our vision is to support and provide parents and care givers with the knowledge and tools to be able to work on their child's development.
We believe learning can be enhanced significantly with the right support, environment, consistency and stimulation.
By working together we can help your child reach their full potential.
With over 22 years of clinical experience we support families and professionals. Intervention can be offered at home and in nurseries, whichever approach best meets your child's individual needs.
We very much welcome multidisciplinary working with other professionals involved with your child's care.
Together we can make a difference.

Parent Feedback
"Kerry's intervention sessions were not only educational but fun, my little boy loved them. Kerry knew how to engage him in activities and get the best from him and she was always up for a challenge (which was most visits!).
Learning goals were always realistic and Kerry did everything possible to help my little boy achieve his targets.
Most importantly we were supported as a family and shown how to communicate effectively with our little one.
I highly recommend Kerry's work with children who have SEND and their families.
I can guarantee your little one will blossom in her care ".
"Not only was the early intervention crucial for our little girl's progress it was equally important to mine. It enabled me to fully understand my daughter's needs, which then helped me to support her myself.
The help and support we received from Kerry was second to none & without this we wouldn't be where we are now!
I highly recommend Kerry and her work with the children 100%.
Written by a very thankful Mum".
“The Early Intervention was key in supporting my child's development. It's so refreshing to hear what my child CAN achieve, rather than hearing what he can't or won't be able to do".
