Parenting a child with SEN isn’t about rushing progress — it’s about celebrating every small win. With patience and simple strategies, you can help your child grow in confidence and protect your own well-being.

✨ Practical strategies that work:

• Routines = security. A predictable day reduces stress for everyone.

• Small steps = big growth. Break skills down and scaffold them over time.

• Teach breaks. Give your child safe ways to say “I need space.”

• Praise effort, not perfection. Even trying is a win worth celebrating.

• Care for yourself. You can’t pour from an empty cup — your energy matters too.

Remember: independence doesn’t happen overnight. It grows one routine, one skill, one hug at a time.
