What we hear from parents

Supporting parents through a complicated process.

Evaluations come back in clinical language most parents weren’t trained to read.

The documentation assumes familiarity with terminology that takes professionals years to learn: Standard scores, percentile ranks, present levels of performance. We help you understand what your child’s evaluation actually says, what’s in it, and what’s missing.

Knowing what to ask for makes a real difference.

IEP and 504 meetings cover a lot of ground in not much time, and the plans that come out of them shape your child’s school experience day to day. Parents who walk in understanding the process, what specific accommodations might help, how to phrase requests so the team can act on them, tend to leave with stronger plans for their child.

Waitlists for evaluation are long, and the process keeps moving while you wait.

Many Washington families wait months to get an initial evaluation, whether through the school or privately. While you wait, we help you figure out what to ask for, what to document at home, and how to prepare for the meetings that follow.

What we do

Three ways to bring a specialist into your corner.

Not sure which fits your situation? Start with Get Oriented — it’s designed for exactly that. You can also join the waitlist below and describe what’s going on; we’ll help you find the right starting point when we launch.

Get Oriented

Initial Consultation

$175 one-time

You’re noticing your child is struggling, but you don’t have an evaluation or IEP yet. A licensed specialist meets with you for 45 minutes by video to talk through what you’re seeing, then sends a written follow-up within 48 hours.

You’ll leave with:

  • A read on whether what you’re describing typically warrants an evaluation
  • Specific language to use when requesting a school evaluation in writing
  • Guidance on what to ask your pediatrician for, and when
  • A recommendation on whether a private evaluation makes sense given your situation
  • A short list of things to start documenting at home that will be useful later

This is an orientation — getting you out of “I don’t know what to do” and into a clear set of next steps.

Come Prepared

IEP / 504 Meeting Prep

$450 one-time

A licensed specialist reviews your child’s evaluation and current or drafted IEP, then meets with you for a 60–90 minute video call before your meeting. Within 48 hours of our call, you’ll receive a written brief that includes:

  • A plain-language summary of what your child’s evaluation actually shows
  • Specific accommodations and IEP goals to request, with suggested language
  • Gaps or areas worth raising in the school’s documentation
  • Common district responses and how to work through them
  • A one-page meeting cheat sheet you can bring with you

You walk in knowing what to ask for, what language to use, and what to expect from the meeting.

Stay Ahead

Ongoing Coaching

from $150 per month

For families with active IEPs who want continued support across the school year. You work with a named specialist who gets to know your child’s situation and is available between major meetings. Your monthly subscription includes:

  • A scheduled 30–60 minute check-in each month (length depends on tier)
  • Review of progress reports, updated IEPs, and new paperwork as it arrives
  • Asynchronous messaging for questions that come up between check-ins
  • Notes and follow-ups documented in one place so nothing falls through

Cancel anytime. Multiple subscription tiers will be available at launch.

Pricing reflects our planned launch rates. Waitlist members receive a launch discount.

Licensed, credentialed, and familiar with your district.

Every specialist on Unavium is licensed or credentialed in Washington State: Educational Staff Associate (ESA)-certified school psychologists, licensed speech-language pathologists (SLPs), licensed occupational therapists (OTs), and experienced special education professionals.

Many have worked inside the specific school districts you’re navigating, with deep familiarity across Washington — including:

  • Bellingham
  • Mount Vernon
  • Ferndale
  • Lynden
  • Sedro-Woolley
  • Burlington-Edison
  • Nooksack Valley

  • and expanding as we grow

Areas we support

Matched to your child’s specific situation.

Children come into the special education system for many different reasons. Our specialists work with families across a wide range of situations, including:

  • Autism spectrum
  • ADHD and executive functioning
  • Dyslexia and reading difficulties
  • Speech and language delays or disorders
  • Sensory processing differences
  • Fine motor and handwriting concerns
  • Anxiety, school avoidance, and behavioral concerns
  • Twice-exceptional (gifted with learning differences)
  • Developmental delays
  • Intellectual and developmental disabilities

When you sign up, you’ll describe your child’s situation — diagnosis if there is one, what you’re observing, what stage of the IEP or evaluation process you’re in. We use that to match you with a specialist whose background fits, whether that’s a school psychologist with deep experience in autism evaluations, an SLP who works extensively with dyslexia, or an OT who specializes in sensory processing. If there’s something specific you need, you can tell us.

Frequently asked

Questions parents actually have.

When does Unavium launch?
We’re aiming to launch in Whatcom and Skagit County in the next 60–90 days. Waitlist members hear first and get priority access.
Who are the specialists?
Washington-licensed school psychologists, speech-language pathologists, and occupational therapists — many with direct experience working inside local school districts.
Is this a replacement for what the school provides?
No. The school district remains responsible for your child’s IEP or 504 plan. Unavium helps you make the most of what the school provides — understanding evaluations, preparing for meetings, knowing what to ask for, and tracking how things go between meetings.
What does this cost?
Specific services are priced in the “What we do” section above. Pre-Evaluation Triage is $175, Meeting Prep is $450, and Ongoing Coaching starts at $150 per month. Waitlist members receive a launch discount.
What if I need help right now and can’t wait for the launch?
Reply to your waitlist confirmation email and tell us. We may be able to point you to existing local resources while we get ready to launch.
Where are you launching first?
We’re launching first in Whatcom and Skagit Counties because we have deep local knowledge there and the wait times for evaluations are among the longest in the state. Families anywhere in Washington can join the waitlist — where we expand next will be shaped by where the demand is.
