I'm a parent or carer

I'm a SENDCo or School

Welcome - I’m Vicky,

I am a London-based autism education specialist with experience in teaching, SEND coordination, autism advisory work, parent partnership, and SEND law.

My work is shaped by a simple aim: to make autism and SEND support clearer, kinder, and more usable.

Alongside my school-based work, I create low-cost books and free practical resources for parents, carers, and professionals. These are designed to share helpful tools more widely, reduce pressure on families and schools, and support inclusive practice.

My approach is collaborative, evidence-informed, and grounded in everyday realities. I believe small, clear changes can make a meaningful difference when children, families, and schools feel understood and supported.

Early support that empowers children and strengthens communities

Free resources: parent PDFs and SENDCO coffee mornings
