Redirected Trainings Page

If you found this page, I’m glad you made it here. It tells me you care deeply about supporting learning and communication in ways that honor identity, dignity, and connection.

While the specific content you were looking for may have wrapped up, the mission behind it hasn’t changed. Every child deserves to be understood, to be supported through regulation and routines, and to have their learning and communication style valued in whatever form it takes.

And there are still meaningful next steps waiting for you. Whether you want visual supports, language that nurtures emotional safety, or a community to learn who really “gets” what you do day in and day out, you’ll find options below that help you continue growing in this work.

And there are still meaningful ways to continue learning. Explore the options and choose what feels right for you and your classroom.

If you’re looking for visual supports that make the day feel calmer and more predictable, the FREE Visual Supports Starter Set is the perfect place to begin. These simple, effective, visual tools help young autistic children understand what’s happening, communicate their needs, and move through routines with confidence and autonomy.

Inside, you’ll find visuals designed for:

daily routines and transitions
supporting expressive communication
nurturing regulation
modeling language in ways that honor dignity and regulation

Every visual is teacher-friendly, para-friendly, and family-friendly, and created to be used in real classrooms and homes without adding overwhelm.

They’re flexible, gentle supports that blend naturally into your routines and help foster smoother transitions and improve communication and learning.

The FREE Social Story Library was created to help young autistic learners move through daily routines with increased familiarity and predictability.

Each printable social story is designed to:
• support self-advocacy
• make routines feel clear and predictable
• help children learn about routines or activities they aren’t yet familiar with

These stories can be used at home or in the classroom to gently prepare children for transitions, new experiences, and everyday moments.

They reduce uncertainty and anxiety, support understanding, and help children build greater independence.

Suppose you’re looking for more than a single replay or download. In that case, if you want ongoing guidance, tools that actually fit early childhood and early elementary special education classrooms, and a community that shares your heart for this work, the Membership is where all of that comes together.

Inside, you’ll find support that meets you where you are, honors autistic communication, and helps you bring connection, routines, and regulation strategies into everyday moments with confidence.

If you want a place to keep learning at your own pace, the Membership offers a space where we learn together, problem-solve real situations, and lean on tools that help communication feel possible across the day:

⭐️ Trainings & Live Coaching: Step-by-step guidance rooted in dignity, autonomy, and presuming competence. We move past theory and into what communication and connection look like during centers, arrival times, small-group work, and play.

⭐️ The High Support Needs Curriculum (Exclusive to the Membership): A full curriculum designed specifically for students who are too often overlooked by boxed programs. It prioritizes regulation, early communication, and meaningful engagement without forcing compliance or “readiness” rules.

⭐️ 500+ Visual Supports & Print-and-Go Tools: Communication boards, routines, regulation visuals, themed resources for communication and learning, behavior-through-connection tools, and classroom supports that help every child express themselves and participate more fully.

⭐️ The Full Adapted Book Library: The Adapted Book Library gives you everything you need to turn hundreds of children’s board books into meaningful, engaging shared reading experiences. Each title includes visuals to adapt the story, plus extension activities like flannel board pieces, a versatile visual cue card (perfect as a playdough smash mat or for other creative uses), and simple visual art projects. It’s all designed to make story time more interactive, accessible, and language-rich for young autistic learners.

⭐️ A Compassionate Community: A private space to ask questions, share challenges, and crowd-source solutions with educators and therapists who understand the heart behind this approach. No judgment, no pressure — just support.

You can begin slowly with the FREE Circle Time Masterclass, or step right into a community that supports this work every day.

Either way, the Membership offers a space to keep learning at your own pace where we learn together, talk through real situations, and lean on tools that help communication feel possible across the day.

Whichever path feels right for you, one thing remains constant:

You’re helping create learning spaces where autistic children are supported to regulate, where predictable routines make the day feel safe, where meaningful connection comes first, and where we teach by honoring each child’s communication style.

Communication doesn’t need to be perfected before it’s valued. It doesn’t have to look one specific way to be respected. And it isn’t something earned through compliance or readiness.

When we presume competence and offer tools, models, and environments that support understanding, we shift away from requiring children to meet our expectations and toward creating conditions that honor their voice, autonomy, and nervous system needs.

Thank you for the work you do. And thank you for caring enough to keep learning, listening, and supporting the autistic children in your care.

I’m Tara, a speech-language pathologist who created this space (after 25 years in the classroom) because early childhood special education is unique, beautiful, and often overlooked.

I know what it’s like to support children still finding their voices while navigating busy classrooms, family collaboration, and dysregulation, and to feel like most professional development just doesn’t fit our world.

My hope is that you leave here feeling supported, equipped, and deeply seen in the work you do every day.
