First Steps
A 6-week Course for Parents and Carers of Neurodivergent Children in the Early Years
A brand new, evidence based 6-week in person course for parents and carers of children aged 0-5 years with a diagnosis or on the pathway for a diagnosis of Autism. Packed with accessible, interactive, outcome focused content we provide a calm, friendly and safe environment for Parents and Carers to develop a good understanding of their child’s needs. As a result of attending this course Parents and Carers will be empowered with a tool kit of strategies and interventions tailored to their family and specifically designed to support the wellbeing and social development of their children under 5.
