Who do you go for support if you think your child has ADHD/Austim?
Over the last few months I’ve noticed patterns he does and as I work in a nursery I know what to look out for but just don’t know who to go for support.
My son is 3 in a few days, I’m really concerned about him and his development.

Thank you x

Health visitor, GP, Senco at your nursery, contact Autism service in your area. Check out the website Parenting special children.

He’s not in nursery yet he starts in January x

if you dont mind, can you tell what are the signs you see? i am also concerned about my little one who will be 3 in a month

Your health visitor and ask for a referral or you can do through to child development centre ( if your area have that) and do a referral yourself ( I found gps useless in my area ) also if he goes nursery they should have a contact aswell x

he’s very hyperactive, doesn’t sleep, has trouble paying attention, can’t sit still, has no patience. Has trouble waiting for his turn
