We provide educational, social, and therapeutic services to children with autism and developmental delays and assist their families.
Welcome!
St. Nicholas Center for Early Intervention is a non-profit organization that offers Applied Behavior Analysis to children in a private setting. Our goal is to provide ABA therapy at an affordable cost.
The St. Nicholas Center for Early Intervention community holds that education is a life-long process directed at preparing each person for fulfillment of his unique personality and for life's work. Parents are acknowledged as the first and foremost educators of their children. The staff shares the responsibility with parents and community agencies in providing students with equal opportunities for intellectual, emotional, social, and physical development. It is believed that a strong foundation in all of these areas is necessary to enable students to function adequately in this complicated, technological world.
At the St. Nicholas Center for Early Intervention, we believe that every person, regardless of their current level of functioning, is entitled to the highest quality treatment. We hold our standards of treatment to those developed by the National Board of Behavior Analysis.

What is Early Intervention?
Early Intervention refers to a provision of services provided to very young children with special needs. Generally Early Intervention services focus on children from birth to three years old. It is the hope, that these services, because they are introduced early, will address developmental delays and lessen the effects of the condition. Early intervention services can both help to remediate existing developmental problems or help to prevent their occurrence.
What is Applied Behavior Therapy?
Behaviorism is the examination of human behavior using the principles of science: observation, reproduction, testing, and objectivity. Applied behavior analysis (ABA), then, is the application of this science of behavior to meet a certain end: to increase or decrease a particular behavior, to improve the quality of a behavior, to stop an old behavior, or teach a new one.

Who Do We Help?
We help children between the ages of 2 and 6 who have developmental delays and their families. The Saint Nicholas Center admits students of any race, color, national and ethnic origin to all the rights, privileges, programs, and activities generally accorded or made available to students at the school. It does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national and ethnic origin in administration of its educational policies, admissions policies, scholarship and loan programs, and athletic and other school-administered programs.
