Find the right sleep solutions designed specifically for your neurodiverse child!

Neurodiverse families often face severe sleep deprivation due to their children's struggles with sleep.

These children may spend the night screaming, crying, or engaging in repetitive behaviours such as sorting items, pacing, or running around the house.

Consequently, the entire family suffers.

Exhaustion affects everyone, making it feel as though everything is falling apart.

Do you resonate with this? Are these challenges familiar in your household? If so, you're in the right place!

This could go on for years!

However, thanks to the unique techniques you will discover in this microclass, your child's sleep could improve dramatically in just one week.

Throughout this micro-class, we will cover

  • How conditions like autism and ADHD affect sleep.

  • The role of melatonin in sleep: what it is, how it works, and its impact on the ability to fall asleep.

  • The relationship between circadian rhythms and autism.

  • PDA: How creating a low-demand environment can lead to better sleep.

  • Managing anxiety, which is often heightened in autistic children and teens.

  • Sleep training: What techniques are effective for our children and why traditional methods may fail?

  • Practical, step-by-step solutions you can start implementing to improve sleep.

Testimonials

“I’ve been searching for someone for years who truly understood autism.

I’m so pleased we found Vicky! Now my daughter sleeps calmly, and peacefully every night. What a huge change for all those nights we struggled with screaming and distressed bedtime routines. I honestly can’t believe the difference.”

-Katie B.

“Wow! What a change in just a week. I never knew how a routine can affect my child so much.

Vicky explained everything to us step by step and gave us all the knowledge to implement a routine and sleep method that actually works. I have tried so many methods before, and I honestly thought nothing else was left to try. I thought my son would never sleep through. But within a week, we’ve actually done it! Amazing. I would definitely recommend Vicky. Don’t wait. I wish I hadn't for so long.”
