Connect the Dots New York

Specialties

We provide individual guidance to parents and families seeking ways to best assist their child in his or her development.

Our birth to age five educational consultation services range from attending a one-​time session designed to help you begin the process of seeking assistance for your child, to assisting you through navigation of the educational system until your child’s needs are met. You decide how much guidance you want.

We provide educational workshops and seminars for teaching professionals and parent groups on any topic related to Early Childhood Development.

We are not affiliated with any school or school district that provides services. We do not have any bias or agenda other than helping you seek what is best for your child.

History

Established in 2013.

Caroline Doty, the founder and owner of Connect the Dots New York is an experienced NYS Certified School Psychologist, Special Educator and Elementary Educator with over 25 years experience dedicated to assisting families through the educational system.

In my years of experience, I have come to recognize that families need support when navigating the educational system. I understand the confusion and frustration families encounter when struggling with the process of seeking developmental assistance for their child. I have worked with families who were uncertain about how to seek help, how to navigate the system and how to continue receiving the services that they value for their children. Using my broad range of expertise in Early Childhood Education, I am able to assist families in finding the best solutions for addressing their child’s needs.
