Prefered Provider Network

Heather Criswell
Founder of Jacob's Ladder
Jacob’s Ladder is a micro-school and sanctuary created for neurodivergent children and the caregivers who love them.
In one building, children learn life skills in a gentle, inclusive space where they are met exactly as they are and encouraged to grow in their own time.
In the other, caregivers are welcomed into a quiet haven for rest, reflection, learning, and connection with others who understand this journey deeply.
Life skills for neurodivergent children. Lifelines for caregivers.
Jacob’s Ladder is a caregiver-first ecosystem designed so children and caregivers are supported at the same time — without sacrifice, shame, or separation. Here, care is shared, and no one walks alone.
