Maybe your two-year-old points and grunts while the toddlers at the park are starting to chat. Or maybe a preschool teacher asked whether anyone has checked your child's speech. Speech and occupational therapy in Granada Hills can begin right at home. One of our licensed therapists, in speech or in OT, sees Granada Hills children from birth to 18 in living rooms and classrooms. Video is there when you need it. No diagnosis or referral is needed. A call from you is all it takes to start.
Do your therapists visit Granada Hills?
Yes. We visit homes north and south of the 118. Sign a consent form, and a therapist can also meet your child at school, preschool, or daycare.
City Planning lists Granada Hills North and Granada Hills South, along with Knollwood, in the Granada Hills-Knollwood Community Plan area. The 118 Freeway splits the two halves, and each has its own neighborhood council: Granada Hills North and Granada Hills South.
In the north Valley, we also visit Porter Ranch, Northridge, and Chatsworth.

Tell us what you are noticing about your child. A licensed therapist reads every message, not an assistant, and replies within one business day. The consultation is free, lasts about 15 minutes, and carries no obligation. There is no waiting list. If you would rather talk now, call (805) 702-3427.
Who runs Granada Hills schools, and which regional center serves the area?
The Los Angeles Unified School District operates the public schools in Granada Hills. North Los Angeles County Regional Center, the San Fernando Valley's regional center, includes the 91344 ZIP code on its list.
Danube Avenue Elementary, Granada Elementary on Tribune Street, and Tulsa Street Elementary on Hayvenhurst Avenue all serve kindergarten through grade 5.
Worried about a child in TK or older? Phone the principal of the public school your home is zoned for, LAUSD's Child Find page advises. Preschoolers go to the Early Childhood Special Education office, and younger children are pointed to a regional center.
The regional center has an Early Start application for ages 0 to 3, and children over 3 apply under the Lanterman Act.
Is there a toddler storytime in Granada Hills?
Yes. The Granada Hills Branch Library on Petit Avenue lists a Toddler Storytime every Monday, with books, songs, and flannel stories.
The branch is also one of the Los Angeles Public Library locations that keeps sensory kits for anyone with special sensory processing needs.
Granada Hills Recreation Center, also known as Petit Park, lists a children's play area and preschool classes. O'Melveny Park on Sesnon Boulevard has hiking trails for older kids.
What comes first in speech and occupational therapy in Granada Hills?
A phone call. The free 15-minute consultation lets a licensed therapist hear your concerns and tell you plainly whether an evaluation is the next step.
If it is, a Granada Hills evaluation can be set up within 3 business days in your home, at school, or on video. Families who want to begin before the report is written can schedule the first session as early as 5 days after that call. See what a speech evaluation includes and what an OT evaluation includes.
What services can come to us in Granada Hills?
Any of them except social skills groups, which are held in Westlake Village. The rest can take place in a Granada Hills home or classroom.
For a toddler who points and grunts, early language therapy and parent coaching that fits daily routines can both happen at home. Older kids can have articulation therapy for clearer sounds or developmental delay therapy. Behind the work are our co-founders: Nita Anavim, M.S., CCC-SLP, on speech, and Rachel Yashouafar, MA, OTR/L, on OT. All services are listed here.

What will therapy cost a Granada Hills family?
That depends on your plan. Village, our partner, can bill TRICARE and PPO plans from several major insurers, and it charges its own fee per visit.
Our regional center partner, Tri-Counties, serves San Luis Obispo, Ventura, and Santa Barbara counties, not the San Fernando Valley. So Granada Hills families use Village or pay privately with a superbill. Paying through Village and our payment options explain more.
Anything else Granada Hills parents ask?
Do you have a Granada Hills location?
No. Granada Hills children can be seen at home, at school, or over video. The only clinic we have, in Westlake Village, is opening on December 1, 2026, and Granada Hills families are welcome there.
Can you come to Danube Avenue, Tulsa Street, or a preschool?
Yes. Once your written consent is signed and the school agrees, we pick a time together with the teachers. Then we check that the room is suitable. Private schools and daycares can work too.
Can a toddler start speech therapy?
Yes. We see children from birth, and therapy for toddlers looks like play. Parent coaching shows you how to work new words into meals, play, and bedtime.
“Early intervention is the term used to describe services and supports available to babies and young children with developmental delays and disabilities and their families.”
The CDC reports that about 17 percent of American kids between 3 and 17, around 1 in 6, have one or more developmental disabilities. A family with questions is far from alone.
If words are slow to come, or meals and play feel harder than they should, you are right to ask now. The first call is free and carries no obligation.
