What It Is

All About Kids (AAK) is a child therapy and education services organization based in New York, USA. Its official website, aakcares.com, is mainly used to introduce its services, accept child referrals, recruit therapists, and publish podcast/blog content. It serves children from birth to age 21, with a focus on developmental delays, speech and language disorders, autism spectrum disorder, and needs related to motor skills and sensory integration.

Core Features

AAK provides multidisciplinary evaluations, speech therapy, occupational therapy, physical therapy, special education, ABA behavioral intervention, service coordination, parent training, and school consultation. Its services can connect with Early Intervention (ages 0–3), CPSE (ages 3–5), and school-age CSE/school district programs, and it also supports private-pay services. The website also offers a HIPAA-compliant online referral portal, therapist login, educational and training resources, and podcast content.

Pricing

The public pages do not list a specific fee schedule. EI and CPSE services that qualify under New York State publicly funded programs are usually provided at no cost to parents. Private-pay services can be paid out of pocket or through eligible insurance, but specific rates need to be confirmed by contacting the organization.

Pros and Cons

Its strengths include a long operating history, with the organization stating that it has served the community since 1988; coverage across multiple counties in New York; and a complete service chain that includes both evaluations and interventions. It also offers both in-person and remote Telehealth services. For therapists, the website highlights supervision, training, and flexible caseload arrangements.

The drawbacks are that its services are clearly location-specific and mainly aimed at families in New York State. The website provides limited disclosure on pricing, insurance, and scheduling wait times. For users outside the United States, the information is more useful as a reference than as a practically accessible service.

Who It’s For

It is best suited for families in New York City and surrounding counties who have children with developmental, speech and language, autism-related, or special education needs. It is also suitable for schools/school districts that need external related services, as well as SLPs, OTs, PTs, ABA providers, and special education teachers interested in pediatric therapy work.

Access from China

The informational pages on the official website can usually be accessed directly, but its services, regulations, insurance, and public funding systems are all based in New York State, USA. For families in China who do not live locally, its in-person services are generally not directly usable.
