Caring for a child with sensory challenges can be both rewarding and overwhelming, and you don’t have to navigate it alone. This page has been created to give parents and carers clear, practical advice on understanding sensory needs and supporting children in everyday life.

Here, you’ll find simple explanations, helpful tips, and strategies you can try at home, and in the community. Whether your child seeks extra movement, avoids certain textures, becomes easily overwhelmed by noise, or needs help staying calm and regulated, we’re here to guide you step by step.

Our aim is to empower families with knowledge, build confidence, and celebrate every child’s strengths. Sensory needs are part of who your child is — and with the right support, they can learn, play, and grow with joy.
