BeyondAutism Early Years

The Early Years’ Group supports families and empowers parents/carers to be more confident in their own and their child’s ability. It is for children aged 15 months up to 5 years.

We offer a flexible approach, with attendance designed to fit around the timetable and goals of each family. Children attend with their parents or carers so that the team can work with them on the child’s communication and engagement and adults can learn skills and techniques to apply at home.

We focus on creating positive outcomes in social, emotional, cognitive and speech development – all tailored to the needs of the individual child and family. Our teaching is structured, with multiple learning opportunities embedded in play. Our methodology is underpinned by Behaviour Analysis, with elements of the Early Start Denver Model – evidence-based approaches that individualise teaching techniques around the needs and preferences of each child.

Our dedicated, interdisciplinary team – comprising of a qualified Behaviour Analyst, Speech Language and Communication Needs Teacher and Early Years’ Family Practitioners – enables us to offer parents support in understanding all areas of their child’s development.

We tailor teaching to the individual needs of the children and families that attend our service based on their goals and aspirations.
