Yesterday I had the pleasure of speaking with a group of teachers at a local preschool about sensory processing & how it impacts behavior, especially in the school environment. Not only did we unpack the foundations of sensory processing, but we went through 7 of the most common 'sensory behaviors' and identified strategies to use to help their students. I love opportunities like this - collaborating with teachers & advocating for children's needs. So thankful!

Moving for Success: Our Story

Hello! I’m Michaelene Kearney and I’m the founding OT behind Children In Motion. I grew up in the Chicago area- Lombard, IL. I have three girls, three pups, and believe you can never have too much wine! I founded CIM because I love enabling children to be their best selves. It’s our mission at Children In Motion to empower children to thrive at home, in school, and in their communities. I love getting to know every child I work with and being able to problem solve solutions with them and their families.

As you can see, pictured above with me is one of my pups, Sadie, who I trained to be CIM’s very own therapy dog. She comes to my gym once a week and also is a huge part of our reading program Bark Buddies. Want to know more about us? Go check out our website at www.childreninmotion.com
