Testimony:

I am Livia's mother, she attends with physical therapist Tatiana and while she is treated, I go to the psychologist Rita. Both Livia and I love to be here. I always learn something every time I come. I feel that the professionals who serve us are qualified and have a lot of attention with Lívia. She will enter the day care center next year. I want to talk to the teacher about the conversation I will have at school. "
