For the child whose struggles aren’t always easy to see,

IEPrepared helps parents understand school evaluations, IEPs, and 504 Plans so they can ask informed questions and take the next step with confidence.


Some children hold it together at school while struggling with learning, attention, communication, anxiety, or overwhelm. They may seem to be “doing fine,” even when you know something more is going on.

IEPrepared has a special focus on neurodivergent girls and children, whose needs may be overlooked in the classroom. Together, we can make sense of what you’re seeing and find clear ways to share your concerns with the school.


Hi, I’m Laura.

I’m a former special education teacher with 14 years of experience and a master’s degree in Special Education. I’m also a mom who understands how different it feels to navigate the school system for your own child.

I created IEPrepared to offer parents knowledgeable, compassionate support when the path forward feels unclear.

You don’t need to know everything before a school meeting.

You can come prepared. Whether you’re just starting to ask questions or already navigating an evaluation, IEP, or 504 Plan, I can help you understand the process and decide what to ask next.
