Caregiver Coaching & Support

Do you often feel like…

It just shouldn’t be this hard!

No one understands what you are going through.

There has to be a better way to help my child!

We can help!

Parenting is tough, and it can be especially difficult when you have a child with additional needs. Our parent coaches and mentors have been on this journey for a long time and want to help you navigate the ups and downs of life with a special needs child. Together, we can make it less difficult by listening to you, discussing with compassion and empowering you with knowledge and tools to be successful in the next stage of your journey. You are not alone!

Common Topics We Cover

During a session we will talk about where your family is struggling. We will help you by sharing our experiences and create strategies that will help you with your goals. Whether you need a strategy for your everyday routine, finding supports in your community, or a specific issue – we are here for you. Our goal is to empower you and your child to be the best version of yourself. Each session you will have “homework” putting into practice some of the strategies we have discussed, that are customized for your situation.

Some of the topics that could be discussed include:

  • Understanding neurodiversity and what it looks like
  • How to navigate getting a diagnosis
  • Tips on how to make everyday tasks easier
  • Creating structure, effective schedules, and good transitions
  • Better understanding your child’s diagnosis
