Individualized Learning. Meaningful Support. Lifelong Success.

Founded in 2016, Hand Over Hand LLC is an educational services and learning support company dedicated to empowering students, families, educators, and school communities through individualized instruction, evidence-informed strategies, and engaging educational resources.

Our mission is rooted in the belief that Everyone, Everywhere Can Learn. We recognize that every learner brings unique strengths, abilities, and learning needs. Through a collaborative, student-centered approach, we help learners build academic confidence, strengthen foundational skills, develop independence, and achieve meaningful progress.

Led by founder Danielle S. McClelland, a New York State Certified School Building Leader and Special Education Teacher with more than a decade of experience, Hand Over Hand specializes in supporting students with diverse learning needs, including learning disabilities such as dyslexia, dysgraphia, and dyscalculia, as well as ADHD, autism, and executive functioning challenges.

Our educational services include individualized academic intervention, Special Education Teacher Support Services (SETSS), literacy and mathematics instruction, executive functioning support, parent consultations, and collaboration with educators and related-service professionals, including speech-language pathologists, occupational therapists, physical therapists, school psychologists, and mental health counselors, to provide comprehensive, individualized support that addresses students’ academic, developmental, and social-emotional needs. We incorporate inquiry-based learning, project-based learning, differentiated instruction, and technology-supported strategies to create accessible and engaging educational experiences.

Beyond individualized instruction, Hand Over Hand is expanding its impact through educational publishing, professional development, and digital learning resources. Our growing collection of workbooks, instructional materials, and classroom-ready resources is designed to help families and educators reinforce essential academic, social-emotional, and executive functioning skills.

We are committed to building meaningful partnerships with families, educators, schools, and organizations while creating educational opportunities that support learners from early childhood through adolescence and beyond.

At Hand Over Hand, we believe learning is not one-size-fits-all. Every student deserves the opportunity to learn, grow, and succeed.
