Autism Service Directory

Children’s Disability Network Team 9 | EarlyBird Plus

Main information

Type of service: EarlyBird Plus

The EarlyBird Plus Parent Programme supports parents and carers of school aged children under ten with a diagnosis of autism. Each family is allocated two places for parents and carers and a third place for a professional of their choosing (often a member of school staff such as a Teaching Assistant, Teacher or SENCO).

The programme is held over approximately 3 months and aims to support families to:

*Understand autism and how children experience the world around them.

*Develop interactions and communication with their child.

*Understand their child's behaviour.

Please contact you local diagnostic team/professional, school or local authority for information on programme availability. If you do not have an EarlyBird Plus team in your area please contact your local health and/or education professionals to request information regarding post-diagnostic support in your area.
