The Invisible Load of Parenting
Parenting a neurodiverse child is beautiful, but the lack of structure can feel exhausting.
Walking on Eggshells
You dread simple transitions. Asking to put on shoes feels like diffusing a bomb.
The "Why" Loop
Your child asks the same question 50 times because they need certainty words can't provide.
Sensory Burnout
Between the advocacy and the managing, your own nervous system is fried by 4 PM.
Why Visuals Work When Words Fail
For many autistic brains, auditory processing is slow and overwhelming. Words disappear into the air, but visuals are static.
Our tools move the information processing from the auditory center (which is overloaded) to the visual center (often a strength).

"I had the PhD, but I was still crying on the kitchen floor."
Hi, I'm Sarah.
Ten years ago, despite my degree, I couldn't get my son to put on his shoes. I realized clinical advice is often too sterile for real life. You don't need a textbook; you need a system.
I created The Calm Routine Co. to bridge the gap. We make clinical best practices (CBT, visual scaffolding) pretty, practical, and easy to use.
