We are excited to introduce Jessica! As of May 2023, Jessica is 14 months old. 

Jessica is a snuggly baby that likes to be cuddled and hugged by her caregivers. When tired or upset she is able to relax when she hears music or soothing sounds. Although Jessica is not able to say words yet, she is able to vocalize through babbling.
 
Jessica needs parents who are comfortable with the many unknowns that are presented by her significant special needs.  Jessica has epilepsy, hydrocephalus, global developmental delays, and vision concerns.  
 
If you think you could be the right family for Jessica,  please contact us at Superkids@gladney.org to review her profile.

We are excited to introduce June! June was born in 2019 and is 4 years old.

June loves to play outdoors! She usually can be found riding a bike or scooting around on a kick scooter! June also enjoys playing with dolls and jigsaw puzzles. June is not shy when meeting new people, and she loves to laugh. 
 
June resides in a children's home with 8 other children between the ages of 2-6 years old. She has a good bond with her caregivers and often asks for hugs. June is currently enrolled at a local preschool.
 
June has global developmental delays and will likely need long term support for cognitive issues and a spectrum of long-term special needs.  She currently attends weekly physical, occupational, and speech therapy sessions. She tends to use single words or monosyllable sounds to express herself. Caregivers at the children's home work with her to practice enunciation, improve communication skills, and become more independent when completing daily tasks, such as putting on her shoes or coat.
