A Message from Our Owner
Our Mission
At aMAYZing Kids, founded in honor of Hailey Mayz Vassilaros, our mission is to provide compassionate care and thoughtful therapy services that gently support each child’s unique path toward growth, confidence, and independence.
By working closely with families and partnering with local preschools, physicians, child-centered programs, and parent groups, we extend support beyond our walls—creating meaningful opportunities for children to explore, connect, and grow within their communities.
Through individualized care, collaboration, and a deep belief in every child’s potential, aMAYZing Kids helps children develop the skills, confidence, and independence they need to navigate everyday life.
Our Treatment Philosophy
At aMAYZing Kids, we believe therapy should feel supportive, engaging, individualized, and family-centered. Our therapists work closely with parents and caregivers to help children build meaningful skills that carry over into everyday life at home, school, and within the community.
We value collaboration across disciplines and believe strong communication between therapists, families, and referral partners leads to better outcomes for children. As our practice continues to grow, we remain committed to maintaining a culture that prioritizes relationships, compassion, and quality care over volume-driven therapy models.

Meet the Cofounders
aMAYZing Kids Pediatric Therapy was cofounded by Stephanie Coe, OTR/L and Michelle Dilts, M.S., CCC-SLP, two experienced pediatric therapists who are deeply passionate about helping children and families feel supported throughout their therapy journey.
As therapists themselves, Stephanie and Michelle understand both the clinical and personal side of pediatric care. Their leadership is rooted in compassion, collaboration, strong family relationships, and creating an environment where children, families, and team members feel welcomed and valued.
Both cofounders remain actively involved within the practice. Their goal is to create a clinic culture centered on meaningful relationships, quality care, and helping both children and clinicians continue growing with confidence.
Why Therapists Choose aMAYZing Kids
From painting nights and wellness events to anniversary celebrations, holiday gatherings, and community outings, we strive to create a workplace culture that feels supportive, connected, and genuinely enjoyable to be part of.
Our team organizes staff appreciation events and team gatherings that help strengthen relationships both inside and outside the workplace. Some of our favorite traditions include participating in Shop with a Cop each holiday season, where children from our clinic attend a special shopping experience alongside their therapists and local Orange County deputies. Our team has even been selected as a featured nonprofit partner during an Angels game experience.
Our mission and culture are deeply connected to the heart behind why aMAYZing Kids was created in honor of Hailey Mayz Vassilaros. That sense of compassion, kindness, and genuine care continues to shape how we support both families and our team every day.
