About Debra Levinson and cradle2college

Who We Are:

Cradle2college is Debra Levinson's "baby." Deb is a licensed and certified speech-language pathologist and board certified educational therapist. She works with kids and adults who find learning challenging because of ADD, language-learning disabilities, speech difficulties, or school-related behavior problems. Deb is passionate about helping families put the pieces of the educational puzzle together. Here's Deb with Rocky, one of her private clients.

Deb with Rocky

Here she is with Ryan and Mitchell, two of "her kids" at Hydesville School, where she worked until June 2005. Deb has now relocated - cradle and all (!) - to Eugene, OR, where she plans to continue building her line of child development products.

Like any other baby, cradle2college came into the world with the love, support, assistance and cheerleading of family, friends and professionals. Very special thanks to:

• Hilda: editor-in-chief, head cheerleader and Deb's precious Momma
• Larry: business brain and husband extraordinaire
• Susan: illustrator and dear, dear friend
• Chris, Peter and the staff of Precision Intermedia: GREAT graphic designers of our products
• Matt: owner of Aesthetic Design & Photography and our wonderful website designer

Additional thanks to all the medical, educational, mental health, and child development professionals who review our products before they go to press and to those who have offered valuable feedback since publication.

What We Do:

Our goal at cradle2college is to provide parents with easily accessible information and parenting tools. We chose the calendar format for our child development products because it doesn't take extra time or energy to use. Essentially, we take the wonderful information available in books, magazines and websites, sort through it, categorize it, condense it, and present it in an at-a-glance form.
