Introducing our Parent Coordinator Team
At Beacon, our Parent Coordinators serve as vital liaisons between caregivers and our clinical team, ensuring that families feel consistently supported, informed, and empowered in their child’s behavioral development journey. In the context of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), this role is critical: research shows that caregiver involvement and consistency across environments significantly increase the success of ABA interventions. Our Parent Coordinators guide families in applying behavioral strategies at home and in the community, focusing on the development of social, adaptive, and daily living skills tailored to each child’s unique needs.
Beyond behavior strategies, Parent Coordinators are also committed to enhancing caregiver self-awareness and promoting self-care—both of which are essential for sustaining long-term progress. They work collaboratively with families to foster an environment of growth, empathy, and resilience.
This essential work is led by Kayla Craig, a seasoned professional with over a decade of experience in child care and family support services. Kayla brings not only deep expertise but also a genuine passion for family-centered care. Under her leadership, our team of Parent Coordinators is grounded in compassion, collaboration, and a commitment to excellence.
We are proud of the extraordinary work Kayla has built and are confident that her vision and leadership will continue to elevate the standard of care we provide at Beacon. Her dedication to families and her unwavering commitment to child development make her an invaluable part of our mission. We deeply appreciate the outstanding work she does every day.
