“KFS School is a place for all children who can be who they are and my son has been working with Vanessa for 8 years doing yoga. He is learning self regulation such as breathing and communication skills when he is gets upset and we have seen a ton of progress! “
Yvette Edwards
“ Highly recommend!! Kahlon Family Services is truly an exceptional program. The Director, Vanessa, and her team are creative, patient, and provide educational experiences to children that are innovative and fun! This includes children like mine, who many “educators” think have no interest in learning. “
