Neurodiverse motherhood
This is the part people don’t say out loud: raising neurodiverse kids can be beautiful and relentless at the same time. If you’re a Melbourne mum doing the appointments, the advocacy, the emotional regulation and the household you’re not failing. You’re carrying a lot.
Three supports that actually move the needle
- Lower demand. Pick one “non-negotiable” and let the rest be “good enough”.
- Build a predictable rescue plan. A script, a snack, a reset. Same sequence each time.
- Protect your nervous system. Tiny breaks count even in car parks, school ovals, and shopping centre parents rooms.
