Take a breath. You don’t have to figure this out overnight.

• Book 1: The First 30 Days After an Autism Diagnosis (Ages 0–6) – 71 pages

Four-Week Framework in Each Book

Ages 0–6

• Week 1: Breathe & Ground (Days 1–7) – Survival mode: feel rather than fix, protect sleep, and learn early signs of overwhelm.

• Week 2: Learn the Landscape (Days 8–14) – Map sensory profiles, reframe milestones, and learn essential clinical terms.

• Week 3: Build Your Team (Days 15–21) – Identify OTs, SLPs, and BCBAs; navigate insurance and funding; make first calls with confidence.

• Week 4: Build a Rhythm (Days 22–30) – Create daily visual anchors, build an emergency calm-down plan, and use passions as a bridge for connection.

Ages 6–12

• Week 1: Breathe & Reframe (Days 1–7) – Steady yourself, learn stress signals, and re-read the past through a kinder lens.

• Week 2: Understand Your Child (Days 8–14) – Map strengths, executive functioning challenges, and sensory needs, including interoception.

• Week 3: Partner with School (Days 15–21) – Cut through jargon, draft an accommodation wish list, and gather records for meaningful support.

• Week 4: Build Skills & Identity (Days 22–30) – Establish after-school rhythms, teach early self-advocacy scripts, and use honest, strengths-first language when talking about autism.

Interactive Tools & Features
