    Hello @debbieletts1980 and a warm welcome to the community.

    As mentioned above, for high rate care component of DLA you would need to be able to evidence that they have substantial care needs day and night that are above the expected for a child of their age. 

    With regards to the question you've asked, does your child use any specific aids?
