S.P.O.T.S (Special Programs in Occupational Therapy Services) provides support to children and their families. We work with children of all ages, who have a variety of developmental and sensory processing challenges. As occupational therapists we provide strategies and adaptations to promote functional participation in the areas of play, school, and home. We are committed to fostering a child’s growth, self-esteem and sense of accomplishment.
We invest in each child’s unique capacity to meet the everyday challenges of the particular environment, culture and community, in which the child lives, plays, learns and loves.
In addition to working individually with children, we also value the need for children to have opportunities to work with each other. Over the summer we run a camp for children. This camp has been highly successful and has brought many children together.
It’s so easy to think back, and retrieve countless memories of Lindsey. She was one of those rare individuals who, by her nature, positively impacted all of the people she came across. Lindsey was always a concentrated ball of energy and effervescence, no matter the circumstances. Whether it be a challenging child or some of her most challenging days, she always found a way to approach all with optimism, perseverance and tenacity.
While it was obvious to see the progress that Lindsey’s clients made throughout their OT sessions and recall the kind words from the many thankful families that she worked with, additionally, all of us, each and every member of the SPOTS family can look back and recount how Lindsey influenced each of our lives in so many different ways by just simply being Lindsey.
For Lindsey, OT was not only just a profession, it was her passion. SPOTS was not only her workplace, but her home. Lindsey did not leave a stone unturned when it came to the children who were under her care. She was dedicated, enthusiastic, optimistic and endlessly buoyant. Throughout the day, one would always hear Lindsey’s infectious laughter ringing out. She loved the children and saw the brilliance in them all. She wanted everyone to strive to be the best they could be, herself included.

Lindsey was a beloved member of our SPOTS family. She was instrumental in developing many of the programs at SPOTS that remain in place today, including the summer camp program. The SPOTS camp is designed to give young preschool children with developmental challenges, the chance to work intensively on their sensory motor skills, social emotional skills, imaginary play skills, practical every day independent skills and to experience the joy of being a kid. The summer camp has continued to this day, and is run by our talented therapists, a number of who worked alongside Lindsey.
We want to honor Lindsey and to continue her legacy by offering scholarships to children to participate in our SPOTS summer camp program. There are many children who would benefit but for a multitude of reasons miss out on these enriching experiences
