About Blue Skies Pediatric Therapy
Our Story
In 2002, after several years working in the public school system, occupational therapist Aimee Roberts felt called to do more for children and families—especially those who weren’t getting the support they needed through traditional services.
She saw families whose children didn’t quite “qualify” for help at school, but who were still struggling. Kids who held it together during the day but melted down at home. Families who avoided outings because of constant challenges. Parents who felt overwhelmed, isolated, and unsure where to turn.
So, Aimee opened Blue Skies Pediatric Therapy Clinic in Federal Way, Washington—a place where families could find understanding, support, and hope. In 2005, she and her family moved to Billings, and Blue Skies came with them.
Since then, Blue Skies has grown into a dedicated team of occupational therapists who have supported hundreds of families—and continue to walk alongside many more, helping children grow, connect, and thrive.
I’ve always wanted to give parents hope that their kid could live as functional, happy kids, and ultimately, adults, and that’s what we work to achieve at Blue Skies.

Our Team
Aimee Roberts, OTR/L
Founder & Owner
I’m Aimee, the founder of Blue Skies. I started Blue Skies in 2005 to bring a holistic, hope-filled approach to pediatric care in my hometown of Billings. With a passion for sensory processing and family centered care, I’ve pursued certifications in Therapeutic Listening, M.O.R.E., SOS Feeding, AEIOU feeding, Get Permission feeding approach, the Alert Program, and Bal-A-Vis-X —and was one of the first Montanans to complete intensive mentorship at the STAR Center.
Beyond the clinic walls, I’m passionate about teaching and inspiring others whether through speaking at conferences, training community organizations, or teaching future OTs as an Adjunct Professor at Rocky Mountain College.
When I’m not jumping on the trampoline or hanging out in the ball pit at work, you can find me spending quality time with my husband, 2 kids, and a menagerie of pets. I’m an avid DIYer and love to build, create, and grow so don’t be surprised if you see me on the weekend covered in sawdust or dirt!
Ashley Brano
Intake Coordinator
Hey everyone! I’m Ashley, the Office Manager here at Blue Skies. I do a little bit of everything around the office – from handling referrals, coordinating intakes and client files, and medical billing, to keeping schedules up to date and the office running smoothly. My favorite part of my job, though, will always be connecting with families and helping them start and navigate their outpatient therapy journey!
As a mom of twins, Chase and Ryley, who were born at just 25 weeks, I’ve personally experienced many of the ups and downs that can come with raising children with developmental delays and special needs. Their ongoing medical and outpatient therapy needs first introduced me to the pediatric therapy world. I’m a mom who truly “gets it,” and I love being able to connect with caregivers and families while reminding them they are never alone in this journey.
When I’m not in the office, I enjoy spending time with my kiddos and fiancé, Tyler. We love traveling, spending time with our extended family (especially in Wyoming!), playing and watching sports, and taking our side-by-side up to the mountains. I can’t wait to meet you!
