As 2025 draws to a close, we wanted to pause and offer a simple but deeply felt message: thank you. Whether you’ve been following our blog from the very beginning or you just discovered us recently, we’re incredibly grateful you’re here.
Our mission has always been to create a space where parents and caregivers of neurodiverse children feel informed, supported, and seen. Parenting differently-wired kids brings profound joy, fierce advocacy, and—let’s be honest—plenty of complexity. You juggle appointments, school meetings, emotional needs, your own needs, and the thousand decisions that come with raising a child who doesn’t always fit the mold. You do it with love, persistence, creativity, humor, and resilience.

Every time you click on a post, share a resource with another parent, or reach out to say, “This made me feel less alone,” you remind us why we write.
You Are the Heart of This Work
This blog exists because of you—your stories, your questions, your hopes for your children. When we’re choosing topics, we think about the real moments happening in your lives: navigating evaluations, embracing neurodiversity, managing school transitions, balancing sensory needs, celebrating strengths, and surviving the tough days that don’t make it onto social media.
Your engagement shapes our content. The questions you ask help us create posts that are practical, compassionate, and grounded in the realities families face. The vulnerability many of you share helps other parents feel understood. In that way, our community quietly supports one another, even from behind screens.
What We Hope This Blog Provides
We write with three goals:
To simplify the complicated. Neuropsychology, evaluations, IEPs, sensory processing, executive functioning—not exactly straightforward topics. We want to break things down in ways that feel manageable and relevant.
To normalize your experience. Parenting a neurodiverse child can sometimes feel isolating. We know because we’re also raising neurodiverse children in a world that does not always understand them. Our hope is that these posts serve as little reminders that you’re not alone, and that your child’s differences are not shortcomings—they’re part of who they are, and often part of what makes them remarkable.
To offer actionable support. Whether it’s a script for talking with your child’s teacher, strategies for reducing overwhelm, tips for school breaks, or ways to nurture your child’s confidence, we want you to walk away with something useful, not just something to think about.
Thank You for Being Part of This Community
We appreciate every parent, caregiver, grandparent, educator, and therapist who reads and shares this space. Your support allows us to continue writing, learning, and growing. Most of all, thank you for the trust you place in us. We know the stakes feel high when it comes to your child, and the fact that you turn to us for guidance means more than we can say.
We have many more posts planned—topics inspired by you. If there’s something you’d love to see us write about, please reach out; your ideas help us keep this blog meaningful and relevant. In the meantime, we hope you’ll continue to take what serves you, leave what doesn’t, and remember that you’re doing an incredible job raising the child you have. Neurodiverse children bring extraordinary gifts to the world, and the love and advocacy you show day after day truly make a difference.
Thank you for reading, for sharing, and for being here with us.
We’re so glad you’re part of this community.
--Char, Christina, Jenn, and Sarah
