Welcome to Vivianna’s Place. As the mother of a child with Down syndrome, I have spent the last 26 years looking at things differently. I’ve been challenged and claim victory over so many hurdles. I am graced with vision for the future and my hope is to share what I’ve learned and what I see to inspire hope. I invite you to offer feedback and feel free to contact me if you have any questions about my journey. Send me a message at info@viviannasplace.com. I will respond.
