Early Overload Signs Checklist
A one-page, practical checklist designed to help parents notice early signs of overload in autistic children — before a meltdown or shutdown occurs.
This resource focuses on observation rather than fixing, and can be used quietly at home or shared with caregivers and schools.
December Calm Plan
The December Calm Plan is a simple, structured tool designed to help neurodivergent families navigate the festive season with more ease and predictability. December often brings changes in routine, sensory overwhelm, social demands, and emotional fatigue — and this plan offers simple, practical ways to create steadiness in the midst of it all.
Inside, you’ll find space to map out calming activities, sensory supports, non-negotiable rest, family needs, and “good-to-knows” for the month. It encourages balance: honouring capacity, setting gentle boundaries, and building pockets of regulation into busy days.
Use it as a weekly guide, a visual support, or a family check-in tool to help December feel more manageable, connected, and calm.
A Special Place for Me
“A Special Place for Me” is a gentle activity that invites children to imagine, create, and describe a place where they feel safe, calm, and happy. This could be a real space they know well or a completely imaginary world filled with the colours, textures, and comforts that help them feel settled inside.
Through drawing, colouring, or building their special place, children practise identifying what supports their regulation and what helps them feel grounded. It’s a playful way to explore emotional safety, self-awareness, and personal calm strategies — and a lovely tool for conversations about feelings and needs
Self-care Worksheet
Self-care is often misunderstood as selfish or unnecessary. In reality, self-care is about maintaining emotional, physical, and psychological wellbeing so that life remains sustainable. These free, psychology-informed worksheets are designed to help you reflect on the internal “shoulds” that drive burnout, explore what truly restores you, and begin setting realistic, compassionate boundaries.
