Located in Atlantic Beach, FL, Bloom serves families throughout Jacksonville and Northeast Florida—including Jacksonville Beach, Neptune Beach, Ponte Vedra, St. Johns County, Southside/Baymeadows, and surrounding communities.
This program is ideal for children who benefit from a supportive, structured, play-based environment that promotes communication, social engagement, early learning readiness, and independence skills. Petit Sprouts is designed to meet children where they are while creating meaningful momentum through consistent, goal-driven intervention.
What Is Early Intensive Intervention?
Early intensive intervention is an approach that provides young children with consistent, individualized support designed to build foundational developmental skills—especially during the early years when the brain is rapidly developing.
For many families, early intervention support may focus on:
- functional communication (requesting, expressing needs, early language growth)
- social engagement (joint attention, interaction, peer readiness)
- play skills (functional play, shared play, pretend play foundations)
- emotional regulation (coping skills, transitions, flexibility)
- early learning readiness (attention, imitation, following directions)
- independence (basic routines, participation in daily activities)
At Bloom, our early intensive approach is developmentally supportive, family-centered, and built to create lasting progress in everyday life—not just inside a therapy room.
Who Is Petit Sprouts For?
Petit Sprouts may be a strong fit for young children who benefit from early, consistent support in key developmental areas. Families often explore Petit Sprouts when their child is experiencing:
- speech and language delays
- difficulty connecting socially or engaging in shared play
- challenges with transitions, changes in routine, or flexibility
- frustration or big emotions connected to communication challenges
- difficulty with attention, engagement, or early learning participation
- early developmental delays or autism-related support needs
While many children in early intervention programs may have an autism spectrum disorder (ASD) diagnosis or may be in the diagnostic process, participation in Petit Sprouts is based on developmental need and clinical fit, not just a label.
What Makes Petit Sprouts Different?
Young children learn best through play, movement, repetition, relationships, and routines. Petit Sprouts is designed to feel engaging and encouraging while still being structured, measurable, and purposeful.
In Petit Sprouts, your child receives support in a setting that promotes:
- natural, play-based learning that helps skills generalize into daily life
- consistent routines that reduce anxiety and build confidence
- motivating activities that encourage communication and interaction
- intentional skill-building without pressure-based teaching
- collaboration across services when children benefit from a multidisciplinary plan
Because Bloom Behavioral Solutions is a multidisciplinary pediatric therapy clinic, families may also benefit from integrated support such as:
- Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA Therapy)
- Occupational Therapy
- Speech Therapy / Speech-Language Pathology
What Skills Are Targeted in Petit Sprouts?
Petit Sprouts focuses on the skills that matter most for early development and daily life participation. Depending on your child’s needs, goals may include:
Communication & Language
- requesting wants and needs
- increasing early sounds, words, or functional language
- improving receptive understanding (directions, routines)
- reducing frustration by improving communication options
Social Engagement
- joint attention (sharing focus with others)
- social interaction through play
- turn-taking and shared routines
- early peer readiness skills
Play & Learning Foundations
- functional play and exploration
- building imitation and engagement
- early learning routines (participation, attention, follow-through)
Emotional Regulation & Flexibility
- coping skills for transitions and changes
- increasing tolerance for waiting and sharing
- reducing overwhelm through supportive strategies
Independence & Daily Participation
- simple routines and daily-living foundations
- increased confidence participating in activities
- skills that transfer to preschool and community environments
What a Typical Session Looks Like
Petit Sprouts is designed to feel warm, positive, and engaging for young children—while still providing meaningful structure. Sessions often include:
- predictable arrival routines that build safety and confidence
- play-based teaching opportunities that target communication and social engagement
- movement and sensory-based activities to support regulation and attention
- guided interaction routines (turn taking, shared play, transitions)
- skill-building that feels natural rather than pressured
Because the learning is embedded into play and real routines, children often build skills that generalize more naturally into life at home, preschool, and in the community.
Supporting Parents & Caregivers
Early intervention success depends on more than what happens inside the clinic. Parents and caregivers are a vital part of the process—because children practice skills in real life every day.
Bloom supports families through:
- parent coaching and home strategies
- clear progress updates and collaborative goal setting
- practical techniques that fit your routines
- supportive guidance without judgment
Our goal is to help families feel confident, equipped, and supported throughout the intervention process.
