Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) is a diagnostic term used to describe the impacts on the brain and body of people prenatally exposed to alcohol. FASD is a lifelong disability.

The ADHD Revolution Sarah Hoff Since 2012, I have been actively involved in decluttering services, starting with the establishment of my Interior Decorating business in 2006 called http://www.insideinspiration2u.com.au. Over the course of seven years, as I provided Interior Decorating and Colour Consulting services, I felt a growing inclination to make a deeper impact on people’s lives. While I assisted clients in transforming their houses into homes, my passion for creating tranquil and serene spaces intensified. This led me to explore the realm of “Professional Organising.” As a busy individual managing a business and raising four children, I intimately understood the overwhelming nature of life within a household of six. I experienced the constant stress of trying to “control” my home and...
I use maths interview assessments to identify specific learning gaps in numeracy. This is not a pen/pencil assessment. It involved manipulation of concrete materials and verbal interview questions. For literacy, I assess for alphabet code knowledge, phonemic awareness skills of blending, segmenting and manipulating sounds. Also I assess for comprehension skills using standardised reading tools. I cater for each student's unique needs in literacy and/or numeracy. After an initial assessment, lessons are created to target specific gaps/ strengths/ challenges that have been identified for the individual. A One Note document is created for each student. Parents/ caregivers may then share this with other professionals involved in the student's learning. Each One Note is a document of planning and...

I Forever felt like a square peg trying to fit into a round hole. My diagnosis opened up a new way of life. I finally understood where my ADHD was holding me back and how to go about achieving my goals. I...
What we do Supported travel and social events for young adults on the autism spectrum or with hidden disabilities. Many young people on the autism spectrum or with hidden disabilities struggle to fit in to the world. They find it hard to make friends, or to build independence apart from family. Some may spend a lot of energy trying to fit in, by masking and adapting to a society they feel like they don’t belong in. While some just need a bit of support, and watch others enjoying this world without being able to access it themselves. Being excluded or struggling to find your people can cause loneliness, anxiety and other challenges. Then add the complexity of travelling and planning...
