Hi you guys,

As promised in my Instagram reels this week, here are your sample visual supports!

I recommend that you personalise these visuals with YOUR OWN photos for your young person. You can glue them over my photos.

You could also create laminated photo tokens with velcro on the back of them for each photo, so that your young person can pull off or put on the token when they are finshed :)

Sample Photo Token

You can also personalise by putting your child's name on the schedule. See space for your child's name below.

1. Sample Morning Routine Visual Schedule

2. Sample Saturday Morning Visual Schedule

Using visuals will help your child regulate!

You don’t have to be perfect to help

Many of us are emotionally stretched - juggling lots of people's needs! And when children struggle, we often feel pressure to stay endlessly calm. But co-regulation isn’t about perfection. It’s about presence. Children don’t need us to erase our feelings.They need to feel we can stay connected while feelings move through the space. A regulated adult doesn’t mean a silent one. It means a ste...

Rest is Action

This week - it's okay to notice exhaustion. For neurodivergent children, exhaustion can happen more easily than for other kids (and for neurodivergent adults too). You are taking in more sensory information, so it makes sense that this would be tiring. It can look like slowing down.Withdrawing.Resisting.Shutting off. And for parents, it often brings fear: “What if this doesn’t lift?”“What if w...
