Neurodiverse parenting (Melbourne)
Affirming support for regulation, sensory load, and practical everyday environments in Naarm/Melbourne.
Key takeaways
- When a child is dysregulated, learning and behaviour control reduce — regulation comes first.
- Sensory load matters: noise, lighting, crowding, transitions, and unpredictability can drive stress responses.
- Environment design helps: quieter corners, predictable exits, shorter exposure, clearer transitions.
- Melbourne lens: trams, queues, high-echo interiors, and crowded venues can spike sensory load — plan for intensity, not perfection.
