Do You Have An Autistic Child?
Being a Parent of an Autistic Child is a free course for Central Bedfordshire parents and carers of children with autism (they do not have to have received a diagnosis).
This interactive and informal course is delivered online via Zoom. It is run over ten weeks by trained parent group facilitators who have first-hand experience of the joys and challenges of having a child with ASD.
In the course, we will explore:
- The experience of being a parent of an autistic child
- Understanding your autistic child
- Help with communication, interaction and playing with your autistic child
- Everyday strategies and routines to assist your autistic child
- Understanding your autistic child’s behaviour so you can meet their needs
- Understanding ‘overwhelm/meltdowns’ to prevent and helpfully manage recovery.
By the end of the course, you will have:
- Increased confidence in your parenting
- Positive parenting skills to improve the quality of the interactions you have with your child.
