Ms. Waldinger operates her consultancy on the premise that the more information parents have, the better they can advocate for their child.

 

Ms. Waldinger assists families in understanding and identifying their child’s unique educational needs.  These can range from eligibility for obtaining programs and services to determining appropriate educational needs, observing classroom placements, and assisting through due process resolution.  After obtaining and reviewing the child’s school-related records, Ms. Waldinger helps families evaluate their child’s status to determine what changes are needed to better support those educational needs.

 

When indicated, Ms. Waldinger can also provide recommendations and referrals for alternative educational placements, services and agencies to help parents obtain the most appropriate educational setting for their child’s functional and learning needs. In doing so, she serves as a partner and a meaningful participant in the process.

 

Due to her unique insight and years of work with Special Needs students, Ms. Waldinger is one of the top educational consultants in her field with longstanding contacts and affiliations to many professional associations serving this community.
