I'm Kelly - blogger, Virtual Assistant and home educating mother of two. I live in the West Midlands with my husband, kids and various rodent pets. My six-year old daughter is autistic and goes to a special school, my 11-year old son is home educated. We have plenty of experience of autism, sensory processing issues, anxiety, mental health issues, home educating, EHCP process, autism diagnosis process, child care (I used to be an Early Years manager) and all the parenting things in between! 

You can ask me questions about parenting and I will try to help!

    Experiencing issues with a 10year old child with sensory issues. Clothes are torn, won’t wear shoes or pyjamas and really pushes parents to the limit. Do you know what kind of help is available for parents and what immediate things can I do to help. Sensitive child, affectionate and very caring but when issues arise can’t get to grips with life.
