No referral fees, ever. Not for families, and never between providers.

Our mission

A letter from the founder.

To the families searching for answers and the providers who believe there is a better way.

Founded by clinicians

Built for families and the providers who serve them

For years, I found myself asking the same question

Why does finding great care for a child have to be so hard?

The letter

Why PediaBloom exists

From Dr. Allison Brazendale, PsyD, clinical psychologist and founder of PediaBloom Family Collective.

As a clinical psychologist, I have had the privilege of working with incredible providers, children, and families. I have also seen how exhausting it can be to navigate a system where everyone seems to work separately. Parents spend countless hours researching providers, asking for recommendations, waiting months for appointments, and trying to piece together care on their own. Even when they find wonderful professionals, those providers often have little connection with one another.

It never made sense to me.

I also struggled with the idea of referring every family to just one provider. Every child is different. Every family is different. There is rarely one “best” therapist, psychologist, pediatrician, or specialist. The right fit depends on the child, the family’s goals, personalities, approaches, and so much more.

I wanted families to have choices. But choices that were excellent.

Not endless Google searches or Facebook recommendations. Not guessing. Not wondering if someone was truly qualified.

I wanted families to be able to choose from a carefully vetted network of exceptional providers who had already demonstrated clinical excellence, integrity, and a genuine commitment to collaboration.

The vision

That vision became PediaBloom Family Collective.

What we believe

Built on collaboration.

Independent providers, one shared standard, and families who never have to navigate care alone.

01

Collaboration over competition

PediaBloom is built on the belief that collaboration is better than competition. We believe independent providers can remain autonomous while still communicating, learning from one another, and working together to better support children and families. We believe families deserve access to outstanding professionals without having to navigate the process alone.

02

A careful review for every provider

Every provider in PediaBloom goes through a comprehensive application and review process. We look at credentials, experience, reputation, and just as importantly, whether they share our values. Our goal is to create a community of providers who are not only exceptional at what they do, but who genuinely want to work together for the benefit of every child.

Looking ahead

This is only the beginning.

My hope is that PediaBloom changes the way pediatric care is delivered by creating communities where collaboration is expected, families feel supported, and children have access to the highest quality care possible.

Thank you for trusting us. Whether you are a family or a provider, I am so grateful you are here.

Together, we can build something better.

With gratitude,

Dr. Allison Brazendale, PsyD
