Appreciating the now
Every stage of your child’s development has its ups and downs. So when it feels heavy, take a breath, and remind yourself to see and enjoy the positives of that season.

Communicating with your child with autism p3
Communication between autistic and non-autistic people can be challenging due to differences in how we experience and interpret the world. These misunderstandings are mutual, not simply a result of autistic traits. Many autistic people communicate effectively just in a different way. Our third post of this segment focuses on ‘special interest’ and how engaging in conversations about these subjects can be a meaningful way to connect.

Reassuring anxious children
It’s normal to reassure your anxious child, but if they keep needing it over and over, it might not be helping. Try to give reassurance that helps them feel braver and more confident.

The power of a ‘To-do’ list
When there’s lots to juggle, it can help to take it out of our head and put it on paper. Starting the morning with a to-do list can help to ease stress, and bring a sense of order and calm to the rest of our day.
