EarlyBird Plus

EarlyBird Plus is for parents whose child is between the ages of four and nine who has received a diagnosis of an autism spectrum disorder.

The programme aims to promote a consistent approach across setting e.g. home and school, by encouraging parents/carers to attend the sessions with a professional who is working regularly with their child. We work to build both parents' and professionals' confidence and encourage them to problem solve together. Parents are able to choose to attend the programme without a supporting professional if their school are unable to release a staff member or invite a professional from a different setting who supports their child.

EarlyBird Plus uses the established EarlyBird framework of increasing autism knowledge before considering communication, developing understanding of their child’s behaviours and considering strategies to support them.

We work with between three and six teams (parents and a local professional) at a time. Two places are allocated to each family with a third available for their local professional or another supporting adult.
