| ... I continue to be amazed at the growth in my child. My daughter, Abby, has been going to her Meryltime appointments for two and a half years. When my daughter began our therapy sessions, Abby was using simple phrases to communicate her needs, she needed pictures cues to help her follow simple directions and had difficulties expanding her play activities. She is now in Kindergarten and is learning to read and write, follow directions in school and is initiating play with her friends everyday. Each and every week, the whole family looks forward to our Meryltime lifeline. Meryl is fun, energetic and knowledgeable. She has helped me to focus on my child's needs and has taught me how to be my child's advocate. Abby is now confident and successful in every aspect of her life and I couldn't be more grateful. Because of the bond we have built while working together as a team to help my child, she is considered a special honorary member of our family. We love her and are indebted to her forever." |

| ....Ms. Meryl Rosenblum's dedication to children with language problems to be exceeded only by her excellence in applying knowledge and research to each individual child who is fortunate enough to have Meryl as their therapist and advocate. As a professional --I am most comfortable in referring my clients--even the difficult cases involving nonverbal language and processing problems. Meryl offers optimum care in the area of speech and language development--children simply love her--making significant strides in their communication skills." |

| .... have met another professional who sees the necessity for overall communication training, not just old-fashioned "Speech Therapy." I have personally learned ways to facilitate and elicit language by setting up supportive environments and to treat every interaction as an opportunity for meaningful communication. Thank you Meryltime!" |

| ....she read to her class for her birthday...How far we've come...” "Meryl taught me how to make my play-time more valuable by showing me how to encourage language through play. She showed me how to join into my daughter's play so that I could promote more communication. I learned more about interacting with my child through Meryl than I ever did in my medical or residency training." |

| ...... The bags are packed, and we are getting ready to head out on our weekly 1 hour and 15 minute pilgrimage. Where are we going? To Meryl Time of course. We are a Meryl Time family. We were a Meryl Time family when we lived in NJ just 30 minutes away, and when we moved to the middle of Delaware there was no discussion about not being a Meryl Time family. The only words our family and friends had to say were, "I guess you'll be back to Jersey a lot for the princess' therapy." From the first conversation I had with Meryl about my daughter's special needs, I was touched. The first thing Meryl said to me when she returned my call for an evaluation was, "First tell me, what is your daughter's name?" NOT, "What is wrong with your daughter?" NOT, "What are the problems with your daughter?" Meryl treated my daughter as a little person with an identity, not a disabled child. Being a former special education teacher these words sounded home to my heart. During that conversation, Meryl displayed the kind of knowledge and experience necessary to treat children with special needs and the kind of compassion to sooth the hearts of parents who ache for understanding and guidance. Meryl knew the medical terminology that I had been exposed so much to since my daughter entered this world of ours. In that one conversation, Meryl explained to me what she believed may be going on with my angel girl and let me know, "You don't worry about this one minute more. I am here for you now. Things will begin to get better." You know what? She was right. Things have only been better since we became a Meryl Time family. Our daughter has progressed so far with her disability, and these gains have extended out into other areas of her development. Our home, family, and friends buzz with the teachings of Meryl. She not only treats my daughter, she treat my whole family. My family is the most precious thing to me, I wouldn't dream of ever going to We will be a Meryl Time family for life (long after our pilgrimages to NJ end). Ah, It's 11:35am. I have to go now. We need to be at Meryl Time by 1 o'clock. Can't wait until we get there!" |

From our first phone call where she gave us advice on who to contact and what websites to visit to 2 years later with our daughter about to enter TYPICAL Kindergarten. She gives 150% of her heart and soul to her kids and their families. Meryl is more than just our daughter's therapist…she is the touchstone that we turn to whenever we need support and guidance. |
