"Camp Kelly is #1"
Ms. Webb, all her staff, and little helpers at Camp Kelly are the best! Everyone is loving, caring, and understanding of all kids.
Camp Kelly has changed my son, [Pedro] in many ways. [He] loves Camp Kelly so much! He wakes up every day wanting to go to Camp. He wants to see his friends and even asks to see all the staff, to the point he wants to bring them to [our] house. (“Mommy Pedro wants camp in Pedro's house.”)
Camp Kelly has given my son a place where he feels safe. For the first time in many years, [he] wasn't afraid at camp. At Camp Kelly, my son changed his behavior, use[d] his words more, [and] enjoyed being around others. Every day I dropped him off, he was the happiest kid! He would even walk away from me and go straight into camp. At pick-up, Pedro came out of camp the most joyful boy – he just loved it there.
As a mom, I even got to know other moms and dads who know what I go through on a daily basis. That was also a great experience as a mother. I know a lot of us [who] have kids on the spectrum mostly think no one knows what [we go] through, but at Camp Kelly, it was different. We as parents got to interact with each other and learned more from one another about the challenges with our kids as we waited on our kiddos.
Camp Kelly is a wonderful camp and I would recommend it to every parent to take their kids, it was one of the best decisions I have made for my son. Camp Kelly is #1.”
