About Joy & Laughter Developmental Therapy
Meet Our Founder
We exist to improve the lives of children and empower parents to help their children live meaningful and joyful lives.
Our Founder, Jennifer Davis, opened JLD Therapy in 2012 because she wanted to provide the best service possible to families in our community. Her experience working with special needs children showed her that the lack of communication between staff and limited options for parents were big hurdles in pediatric therapy.
She decided to change that and created a place where therapists were able to connect and communicate, and parents were encouraged to make informed decisions. Thanks to her dedication, JLD Therapy has become the premier pediatric therapy clinic in the Silicon Valley where kids achieve incredible outcomes.
Our Mission
We are on a mission to make childhood fun for everyone! We believe play is powerful and that children learn best when they are playing. Our team of occupational, physical, and speech therapists help children and their families grow to their fullest potential.
Our Goal
At our core, we believe that exceptional care starts with supporting our therapists. When our team feels valued and empowered, they can provide the highest quality therapy for your child.
We are dedicated to helping parents play an active role in their child’s therapy journey. We openly share any challenges we see, present all available solutions, and collaborate with families to create the best path forward.
Therapy is a process, not a quick fix. It often requires a combination of techniques to address every aspect of a child’s development. But the payoff is incredible—our patients are thriving, and our therapists love being part of this meaningful work.
COre Values
Everyone on our team shares a set of core values. These values are true for how we work as a team and in how we work with children and their families:
Compassion
We show up for ourselves, our clients, and each other since everyone needs a little help sometimes.
Impact
We want the work we do, the relationships we have, and the services we provide to make a difference.
Excellence
We strive for excellence in everything we do with high-quality services and a professional attitude.
Collaboration
None of us can do it alone, and the group is greater than the individual parts, so we work together.
Fun
We don’t take ourselves too seriously. Life is too short to not have fun!
