In-home ABA therapy across Maryland

No two children are the same. Neither are we.

Started by a mother whose own son is autistic. Today our clinicians work in living rooms across Howard County and Baltimore.

Five minutes. No commitment, and we check your insurance for free.

Where you are right now

Somewhere between “something feels different” and “what now?”

Maybe the diagnosis came last week. Maybe you have waited so long you stopped expecting the call.

You have been handed plenty of paperwork and not much reassurance.

How we work

Your living room is the classroom

Mornings that fall apart at the front door. Dinners nobody finishes. That is where skills have to hold, so that is where we teach them.

Your BCBA will know your child without opening a file.

Getting started

Four steps, and we walk all of them with you

A form or a phone call

You reach out

Whichever is easier. A real person reads it, and you hear back either way.

Usually within days
At no cost to you

We check coverage

We verify your benefits directly with your insurer and tell you exactly what we find, including what you would owe.

The slow step is theirs, not ours
Assessment at home

A BCBA visits

We watch, we ask, we take data. Then we build a plan around your goals rather than a template.

In your own home
Alongside you, weekly

Therapy begins

Your technician works in the rooms where the hard parts happen, and your BCBA reviews the data continuously.

Ongoing, and always adjustable

The difference

Two ways this can go

Most ABA websites use the same words. Here is what the words mean in practice.

What families often describe

  • Hours set by what insurance will authorise
  • A technician arrives, a parent leaves the room
  • Compliance treated as progress
  • Billing outsourced to someone who has never met you
  • A different face every few months

What we do instead

  • Hours set by assessment data, and fewer when fewer are right
  • Caregiver coaching built into every programme
  • Assent-based care: a child who withdraws is telling us something
  • Billing in house, answered by a person who knows your case
  • A named BCBA who knows your child's history
What we do

Six services, one plan built for your child

As a mother of a child with autism, this work is deeply personal. I founded Snowflakes because every family deserves the care I wished we had.

The people who would be in your home

Every child has the potential to grow. I love being part of that journey and seeing the progress families work so hard for.
Antonina ShangrawBCBA, Behavior Analyst
I pour my heart into every case I supervise. Seeing a well-designed program make a real difference for a family is what drives me.
