“My passion has always been working with autistic young people - I believe that they have so much to offer, and yet the education system often fails them because staff do not have the right skills and experience. This is something I am passionate about changing! I am an experienced trainer and really enjoy training others.” Laura Kerbey

REVIEWS:
Dr Naomi Fisher, clinical psychologist and author of When the Naughty Step Makes Things Worse
Readable, down to earth and filled with real-life examples, Laura and Eliza have produced a simple guide to something which often doesn't feel simple at all. If you have a child for whom the usual rules don't seem to apply, then this book explains their apparently inexplicable behaviour. You'll end it with a better understanding of your amazing child, and a new awareness of how they may experience the world. And you'll recognise your family in the on-the-nose illustrations!
Anita Grant Chair of Play England
These simple guides offer clear and beautifully illustrated ways for families to understand their children (and adults) who have PDA allowing us all to think through our interactions and validating our feelings as we negotiate our relationships. The combination of humour and practical tips foster understanding and confidence with warmth and compassion.
