Hi, I'm Laura, I'm the SENsory Mother!
I am a mother who understands the struggles and challenges of raising a child with a diagnosis of autism, ADHD, and sensory processing differences.
I help overwhelmed parents to better understand how their child sees the world, and work with them to develop real life, practical (and simple!) strategies so that they can overcome the overwhelm (and so that EVERYONE in the family can thrive)!

I know first-hand the confusion, frustration, and heartache that comes with trying to understand and support a child who sees the world differently.
I have felt blame, judgement and an immense sense of inadequacy. As a secondary school teacher and university tutor, I have spent my entire career managing the behaviour of other people's children but yet I couldn't manage the behaviour of my own child.
I went on all the parenting courses and spent hundreds of pounds on programmes to parent him better - except none of it worked. None of it was made for families like ours.
Through a lot of hard work, determination, introspection, education and personal research, I have been able to find a pathway out of despair. I now have the knowledge, understanding and tools to be able to support my son, myself and our entire family.
I've gone from failing to flourishing, and I'd love to help you do the same!
I have created a portfolio of support packages, including online training and community support based on the kind of help I wish I'd had way back when I was finding things impossible. My programmes of support are flexible, accessible and are designed for parents who seek real change for their child(ren) and themselves.
Thank you for being here, I know how difficult it can be to take the first step in seeking support.
