PRIVATE SERVICES | AUTISM | CHILDREN & YOUNG PEOPLE
Understanding their world can help you support them in it.
Sometimes you notice things you can’t quite explain.
Perhaps your child communicates or plays differently to other children. Certain sounds, textures, situations or changes might feel particularly difficult. They may find social situations confusing, have strong interests or need routines to feel comfortable.
Sometimes the signs are obvious. Sometimes they’re much more subtle.
Our specialist clinicians can help you explore what you’re noticing and understand whether an autism assessment could help provide answers.

Every autistic child is different.
Autism can influence how a child communicates, interacts with others, processes sensory information and experiences the world around them.
But there isn’t one set of behaviours that describes every autistic child.
Some children need significant support. Others may appear to cope well while masking difficulties or becoming overwhelmed away from school or social settings.
A thorough assessment looks at the whole child and their experiences across different parts of their life.
Getting to know the whole child.
Our approach brings together different perspectives to understand your child’s development, strengths, experiences and needs.

Recommendations & next steps
Three things make us different.
We get to know your child.
Assessment isn’t about making a child fit a checklist. We want to understand who they are, including their strengths as well as the things they find difficult.
We listen to the people who know them.
Parents and carers are an important part of building the picture, alongside other relevant information about your child’s experiences.
We help make sense of what comes next.
We’ll explain the outcome clearly and help you understand appropriate next steps and recommendations.
It's okay to have questions.
You don’t need to know whether your child is autistic before contacting us.
Tell us what you’ve noticed and what you’re hoping to understand, and a member of our team will be in touch.
