2023/04/03

It’s so easy to spiral down in the “what if” game and second-guess ourselves.

We are here to tell you that’s NOT TRUE! Today we look back and discuss what we wish we would have known.

The Care Map: What I Wish My Teacher Knew

Moms Talk Autism Podcast ·

2023/01/09

What did you wish your teacher knew?!?! I think that answer changes over time. It's static. And our experience and engagement with our educators can feel one or two-dimensional at most times. I will tell you what helps, though; it's drawing out your care map. Who freakin’ knew?!?! If you don’t know what that is, Google it. There is not one website I recommend over another, but knowing how to make a care map can serve as one of the foundational documents for parenting a child with any
