Constant shifts in technology create a lot of unknowns and getting good information can be difficult.  Friends and family can fix some problems, but they rarely have the time or expertise to solve all your issues.

Our coaches address your biggest, most immediate & frustrating hurdles first. We assess your technology needs by listening to your concerns and asking simple questions. Together we create a personalized roadmap to reach your goals based on your experience, values and lifestyle.  We provide you with the most up to date information to help you make important decisions when choosing hardware, software and service providers. We explain technology in easy to understand English.

I had a few sessions with Alex for MFA application tutoring and he went above and beyond. We edited…read moremy portfolio and essays until they were just right. In addition to being really flexible with scheduling, (which was super convenient) he really helped me get exactly what I wanted out of the essays & portfolio. His fixes were spot on and really strengthened my work. They weren't just cosmetic either, we did a lot of restructuring to support the root themes of the stories and make them better. I truly cannot imagine a better experience or a more encouraging teacher. A lot of other writing teachers I've had in the past get an idea in their head of how to fix a piece and try to steamroll you into executing it, but Alex was exactly the opposite! My vision was heard and supported at every step. Alex really took the time to understand me and my pieces, and they were better for it. I credit the confidence with which I submitted my applications to Alex and look forward to working with him in the future once I finish my manuscript draft!

He is always offering suggestions that are very helpful. I will definitely take another course in the very near future.

This was an extremely frustrating and disappointing experience, especially given the urgency of my…read morechild's situation. I reached out for advocacy support just days before my daughter's IEP meeting, clearly explaining that I am currently unemployed, have no income, and that my unemployment benefits have been exhausted. I submitted documentation, including my letter of separation, and followed up multiple times due to the time-sensitive nature. Despite this, the interaction remained focused on requesting additional financial documentation rather than offering any form of meaningful or immediate support. Even after stating multiple times that my income is currently $0, I was told that I did not qualify for any reduced rate without further proof such as bank statements or public assistance documentation. At no point was any temporary, limited-scope, or urgent assistance offered. Instead, I was ultimately directed to other organizations for help. As a parent trying to advocate for my child under a strict deadline, this felt less like support and more like a barrier. The process came across as rigid and transactional, with more emphasis placed on financial qualification than on the immediate needs of a child facing an upcoming IEP meeting. Families seeking urgent help during times of financial hardship should be aware that without very specific documentation, assistance will not be provided -- regardless of how time-sensitive the situation is.

This company has been a Godsend for my family. As a caregiver of special needs children, too often…read moreI have found myself frustrated with the system and the lack of resources dedicated to this vulnerable demographic. At times, one feels isolated, deflated and defeated. NYAdvocate4Kids has acted as a conduit on my behalf to aid in navigating the complicated and nuanced educational system in NYC. The staff was professional, courteous and knowledgeable. They went beyond the call of duty to accommodate me and customized their services to meet my families needs. NYAdvocates4Kids stands up for the "little guy"-both literally and figuratively speaking. I am beyond pleased with the services I received and would highly recommend them to anyone in need of an experienced ally, advisor or educational advocate.

We started my daughter at the Goddard school when she was 7 months old. Ever since then, each one…read moreof her teachers have shown her so much love and support. When she was in her infant room, Ms. Christine was kind and patient. She engaged her both emotionally and physically. Im sure that my daughter reached all her milestones early because her teachers worked so hard with her. Now my daughter is in the toddler classroom and she is obsessed with Ms. Lidia and Ms. Danielle. She calls for them by name on the weekends. I feel so safe and comfortable knowing that these 2 women are taking care of my daughter. In addition to all the love and care she get, I am so beyond impressed with the menu my daughter I served everyday. She eats such a diverse menu of foods that I couldn't possible recreate in my house!

We originally chose the Goddard School because of their covid procedures, way back in 2020-2021,…read morethat were very strict. Throughout then, till now, we have been beyond satisfied with their organization, safety protocols (protests, covid, etc.), food selections/variety/nutrition (organic, etc.), communication (frequency, methods and accuracy) and most importantly the teachers. The people and systems that really hold everything together to give the opportunity to forster fun and learning. From Lowest Aged Classrooms - Ms. Victoria and Ms. Molly - both so kind, gentle and understanding, which at a younger age, really what kids need. They take note of important things like food intake, health, sign language, and even smaller (but life hack tips) items such as good sippy cups to use, etc. Ms. Monica and Ms. Destiny - they had our (first) son at a very challenging age and really were his first teachers at Goddard. They worked with him to achieve so many milestones. He loves them both dearly! They were upbeat, so dedicated and really got him out of his shell (and may I add out of many bad moods)! We can never thank them enough! Ms. Philena and Ms. Tiana - Both great teachers! Ms. Tiana is so sweet and caring. She keeps kids calm and speaks to them in such a way that they really open up to her. Mrs. Philena is also great, she speaks to the kids like little adults, and helps them to achieve milestones, such as staying dry after a nap, etc. She communicates (as she was the late night teacher) to the parents at pick up about the happenings of the day! Ms. O and Ms. Nina - Ms. O is a model teacher - as she must be for the age she teaches is when they start to get a little "smart"! She is firm and challenges them (holds them accountable) as well as relates to them on a friend level. Ms. Nina is so warm! She knows the unseen things such as if they may have to use the bathroom, or if they are in any type of "mood." She gets to know each kid and treats them as if they were her own. The administration really runs a tight ship - there is never a slip-up. Kellyanne, Yolanda, Sylvia and Emily they are all highly efficient whether it be getting the daily reports, communicating sicknesses/incidents, holidays, or crazy things that parents ask for like pictures of how big the chunks of food their kid are eating (guilty), or swiftly getting ....snacks or throw up off the floor (the sheer number of things that they handle I am sure I only know a small fraction). They basically are the neck to the (very heavy!) head. We could not be happier about the quality of teachers at the Goddard School to entrust them with the foundational years of our children.
