📌 New Video Alert: Observing & Understanding a Child’s Needs!
As parents, educators, and shadow teachers, we all want to support children in the best way possible—but how do we truly understand their needs? 
Sometimes, children may not express their challenges verbally, but their behaviors, reactions, and learning patterns can give us valuable insights.
In my latest YouTube video, we explore practical observation techniques to help decode a child’s needs and provide them with the right support. This episode covers:
ABC Observation Method – Understanding triggers behind behaviors Sensory Checklist – Identifying sensory preferences & sensitivities Visual Schedules – Helping children with transitions & structure Real-Life Case Studies – Breaking down observation techniques with examples Role-Plays & Practical Tips – Strategies for both parents & educators
Whether you’re working with neurodiverse children or simply want to improve your ability to support kids in learning environments, this video is packed with valuable insights you won’t want to miss!
