"Kids who are not getting optimal & reliable information from their senses often feel uncomfortable & out of control. Predictability allows them to feel more secure. Changes in routine threaten that sense of security & can trigger meltdowns."

“When a child is moving through the world differently, they are often all too aware that they don't quite fit in. But when parents commit to creating an environment where their child can let down their defences, there is no limit to their growth.” ✨
