• Structured Routine : A predictable and structured daily routine is crucial for children with ASD. Our homes provide a consistent schedule that helps children feel secure and reduces anxiety. This routine includes set times for meals, activities, therapies, and relaxation.
• Specialised Educational Support : Education is a cornerstone of our care programme. We work closely with local schools and educational professionals to create and implement Individual Education Plans (IEPs) and Education Health Care Plans (EHCP) tailored to each child’s learning needs and abilities. Our team ensures that children receive the support they need to succeed academically and reach their full potential.
• Social Skills Training : Social interactions can be challenging for children with ASD. We provide targeted social skills training to help children improve their communication and interaction with others. This includes:
• Role-Playing: Practising social scenarios to build confidence and improve social understanding.
• Social Stories: Using narrative techniques to teach appropriate social behaviours and responses.
• Peer Interaction Activities: Facilitating group activities that encourage positive social interactions and friendships.

Sensory-Friendly Environment : Our homes are designed to be sensory-friendly, with spaces and activities tailored to the sensory needs of children with ASD. This includes:

• Sensory Rooms: We will tailor the child’s bedroom with calming lights, sounds, and textures to help children regulate their sensory experiences.
• Quiet Areas: Designated quiet areas where children can retreat to when they feel overwhelmed or need a break. Our home is located within 4 acres of serene, green land, with activities such as football posts, trampoline, swings etc and areas to simply sit and enjoy the nature that surrounds the home.

Life Skills Development : Developing essential life skills is a key component of our ASD services. We provide training in various life skills to help children become more independent and prepare for adulthood. This includes:

• Self-Care: Teaching personal hygiene, dressing, and grooming.
• Basic Cooking: Introducing simple cooking tasks to promote independence.
• Money Management: Educating on basic financial skills such as budgeting and saving.
• Job Searching: Preparing older children for employment with job searching and interview skills.

Family Involvement : We believe that involving families in the care process is crucial for the child’s development. Our family support services will include:

• Counselling: Providing guidance and support to help families understand and manage ASD.
• Mediation: Offering mediation services to resolve conflicts and strengthen family relationships.
• Facilitating Family Visits: Ensuring regular and meaningful contact between children and their families.

Therapeutic Support : We have access to qualified therapists offering a range of therapeutic services tailored to the needs of children with ASD. This includes:

• Occupational Therapy: Helping children develop fine and gross motor skills, sensory processing, and daily living skills.
• Speech and Language Therapy: Addressing communication challenges and enhancing language skills.
• Play Therapy: Using play-based interventions to support emotional and social development.
