Claire Heffron

Claire Heffron is a pediatric occupational therapist and one of the co-creators of The Inspired Treehouse, a blog designed to share information about child development as well as activities to help parents, teachers, and therapists target developmental skills for kids in a fun and playful way.

Claire holds a Master of Science in Occupational Therapy from The University of North Carolina and has been practicing in public and specialized school-based settings for 10 years. She currently works in a preschool and primary school setting with children who have a variety of diagnoses and special needs. Claire also has an undergraduate degree in Journalism from Ohio University and enjoys combining her career as a therapist with her love of writing through blogging and creating books about kids activities and child development.

Claire is mom to three funny, rambunctious boys and after spending the day surrounded by young kids (at home and at work), Claire relies on yoga, good food, and time outside to bring her back to center.
