The home page of this website has a life events time-line with links to support and info that corresponds to the various stages of your child's development, from the point of diagnosis, through early childhood to adolescence, leaving school and more.

Designed specifically for families who have a child with a disability, this resource enables you to develop a ‘one-stop shop’ document about your child that brings together information about support needs, disability, likes, dislikes, strengths, family, friends, behaviour support needs, medical/health needs and communication style to name a few!
This resource will save you time and emotional energy, it will enable you to stop repeating your child’s information over and over, it will help you to provide others with a positive introduction to your child, and assist them to be consistent in their support of your child.
The cost of the resource is a once off fee of $50.00 (incl. GST) for up to 2 children.
