Parents & Carers

Caring for a neurodivergent child or young person, child with SEND and/or early life trauma brings its own unique joys and challenges.

Parents & Carers
Our story

We understand what it is like to be the parent or carer of a neurodivergent child or young person, child with SEND or early life trauma

90% of us are parents & carers of neurodivergent children & young people, children with SEND or early life trauma and/or are neurodivergent ourselves. We bring our extensive lived experience and specialist knowledge to offer tried and tested resources, effective strategies, and a compassionate listening ear.
