Are you…
- A parent or an administrator who is struggling to help a child who is extremely disruptive in class or completely disconnected from the learning that’s happening in their classes no matter what interventions you’ve tried?
- Working with a child who has horrible self-esteem because they feel like school is not a safe place for them so they shut down or act out?
- Tired of hearing your child’s teachers complain that this student is highly disruptive or completely lost?
- Crumbling under the pressure of having a ton of parent-teacher/administrator meetings over the years, but nothing seems to be working?
- Worried that your child is going to be asked to leave the school because the school can’t help them anymore?
It doesn't have to be this way.
"Getting Daniella involved as our child’s advocate was a total game changer. She was adept at navigating the system, and the results were remarkable."
Transform Struggles into Success: A Coordinated Plan for Your Child’s Academic Journey
I meet with the parents, students, teachers, administrators and therapists to understand what has gone wrong over the years and I develop a coordinated plan with everyone involved with the child to ensure a holistic approach that meets all of the struggling student’s needs.
Here’s what happens next…
- Parents: I coach parents to understand how they can ensure that their child is able to succeed at school
- Students: I coach students to manage their own plan of action to succeed at school. I design work tailored to the student’s strengths and weaknesses
- Teachers: I coach teachers to support their struggling students effectively.
- Administrators: I meet with administrators to ensure there is an actionable plan in place for the student that is sustainable for the school to adopt.
- Parents and Administrators: You will be able to ensure that your child’s IEP funds are being used in the most efficient way possible without any extra financial burden.
Within a few months, teachers, therapists, and specialists will have a coordinated, effective approach that is sustainable and will give your child more confidence and skills to navigate school.
Our 3-step plan to your dream outcome
Strategy
I communicate with all the team players for the struggling child to collect data to understand what strategies have been tried and where the child has gotten off track.
Implementation
I design a system based on the child’s buy-in that they feel they can uphold. I communicate the plan with all the involved parties and follow up with each of them to ensure that they are following through on the plan.
Long term success
I meet with the child or parents weekly to ensure that the plan is being upheld and the level of challenge for the child is increased gently over time.
Witness remarkable engagement of your child who may be turned off by traditional methods of education.
What parents and professionals are saying...
“Mrs. Botnick has been an extraordinary advocate and partner in supporting our daughter’s growth, both academically and socially…She worked closely with the school team to ensure academic strategies were tailored to her strengths, while also helping her build confidence and connection with peers. The result was a noticeable, positive shift—not only in classroom performance, but also in how our daughter interacted with others and viewed herself. The academic progress was important, but the social integration was just as meaningful. Thanks to Mrs. Botnick’s thoughtful, coordinated approach, our daughter began to truly thrive on all fronts.”
“Getting Daniella involved as our child’s advocate was a total game changer. She was adept at navigating the system, and the results were remarkable. She took a year that was headed in a very rough direction to one that turned out to be a very positive experience for our child.”
“Mrs. Botnick made a tremendous difference in helping our daughter succeed at school. She took the time to really understand the IEP and put clear, thoughtful protocols into place that were true game changers. She didn’t just pass the information along—she took full ownership and made sure those supports were actually happening in the classroom. She met with the teachers, the principal, and our daughter to make sure everyone was on the same page. She naturally stepped into the role of team leader and made sure nothing fell through the cracks. Thanks to her, our daughter finally had the support she needed to thrive.”
“Thank you Daniella. I am so jealous of your zechusim (merits). You literally take girls and help them actualize their potential and recognize their greatness.”

FAQs
My child/student already has a tutor/therapist/support team, what do you do differently?
I serve as the quarterback with all the people involved to ensure that everyone knows what to do and follows through.
I typically work with students for 3-6 months and then the rest of the team can continue without me.
Can we use IEP money towards this service?
Yes!
What are your payment options?
I accept Zelle and have flexible payment plans. Please contact me for details.
How will your services be covered if I’m already using IEP funds to pay for the other services?
Typically there’s plenty of money left from the IEP funds once all the “team players” are more coordinated and sometimes there’s even money left over because the child’s needs are being met much more effectively.

Yes!
