Back to School Transitions: What Really Helps Neurodiverse Kids
If your child is anxious about going back to school — especially if they’re autistic, ADHD, or neuro-sparkly — this episode will help you turn that anxiety into a plan. Most children aren’t scared of *school* — they’re scared of the *unknown*. So in this episode I’m sharing the practical, real-life things that have helped my family through school transitions (new class, new teacher, new rules, new routines — and sometimes even a new school). In this episode you’ll learn: - Why transitions can feel so big (especially for neurodiverse kids) - The “volume dial” explanation (why unfamiliar environments feel overwhelming) - How to build familiarity (photos, visits, routes, social stories) - Friendship + emotional prep - Independence + routine tips that make September calmer
