Tutor for K girl with ADHD/Dsylexia - Walnut Creek area
I’m looking for a tutor for my 6 year old daughter who was recently diagnosed with ADHD and Dyslexia. She’s at a preschool level for reading and math and the school has offered to provide curriculum for the summer. I tried to get her into the ARC reading program but they were booked and Linda Mood Bell wasn’t the right fit. I would prefer a tutor if possible who can build a relationship with her and work with her 3-5 days per week over the summer. Any recommendations?

I highly recommend Lainie's Learning Lane (https://learninglanewc.com) in Concord which is also known as Core Academy. My daughter attended their summer math camp last year and loved it. They also offer individual and group tutoring during the school year.
For a dyslexic child you should be looking for an ET (Educational Therapist). ET's have extensive, specialized training in supporting kids with LD's and can help your student far better than a 'tutor' who may or may not have special training in remediating dyslexia. I don't have any to recommend in your area, but you can check this website for a licensed professional: https://www.aetonline.org/parents-community/find-an-et
