Cherie Johnson, MOT, OTR/L

Hi, I'm Cherie.

I'm a pediatric occupational therapist, a mom of two, and someone who's spent more than 20 years working in South Florida schools. One of the biggest concerns teachers share with me is children struggling with handwriting — and once kids fall behind on foundational writing skills, catching up gets harder every year. I've seen it firsthand even with my own kids at home.

That's why I created Ready-2-Write.

My goal is simple: to help young children build the handwriting skills they need before school gets hard. Not as a reaction to struggle — but as a head start.

I work with children Pre-K through 3rd grade, the window when handwriting habits are forming and the right support makes the biggest difference. Every session is warm, encouraging, and tailored to your child — because little learners need to feel confident, not pressured.

I'd love to help your little one get ready to write!
