Cicilia has a stable state of mind and is described as tranquil and joyful. Sometimes she cries when a need is not met, or she expresses discomfort. She gives and receives affection through non-verbal expressions like smiles, kisses, caresses, and hugs. She loves to interact through clapping or smiles and does a great job sharing with other children. She struggles a bit with gross and fine motor but receives physical and occupational therapy at home for 40 minutes, 3 afternoons a week. She loves children’s music, children’s television, going to the park, and exploring new surroundings. She has a good appetite and loves to snack. She gets a little antsy when food is not given right when she wants it.

The agency who listed Cicilia also offers additional fee reductions / grant opportunities to families.
