Autism Training from AuKids’ Co-founder
Staff at Thrive Child Care Ltd in Scotland get to grips with sensory toys and visual support
Early Years training day for staff
Could an autistic child thrive in your setting?
75% of autistic children are educated in mainstream schools and nurseries. Do your staff know how to meet their needs?
Making your setting autism friendly means knowing how to predict and offset potential sources of anxiety whilst maximising learning and engagement.
Sign up for a day’s training and you’ll receive tried and tested strategies, real life scenarios and completion certificates. E-mail aukidsmag@gmail.com or fill in the form below.
Handouts include colourful articles from AuKids magazine underlining some key learning points. Your delegates will also receive a comprehensive reading list and links for useful equipment, resources and sensory toys, plus discounts from books written by the autism team.
“The delivery of the session was interactive, relaxed and very informative. Debby’s passion for the subject shines through in her approach.”
“I will be a better practitioner and able to support my staff team in a more helpful way because of it.”
“I have worked in the Early Years sector for 30 years now, and there has never been any specific training that you can relate to as well. I am a new Regional Manager for Thrive and feel will be invaluable to practitioners, a thorough understanding of autism and how we can best support the children in our nurseries.
Will definitely be recommending you to others within the sector.”

“The training was very informative and I enjoyed hearing about Debby’s personal experiences in supporting her own children with autism. It is refreshing to have a presentation where the trainer has a personal connection with the topic they are presenting on.”
