MindBuilders

Service

MindBuilders offers a holistic therapeutic Home Consultation Programme to support families with a child with autism, communication and/or develomental difficulties through interactive and developmental play activities using a developmental (that is very different from ABA or a behavioristic) approach, including DIRFloortime, Waldon 'learning how to learn' approach and training for parents/carers. Autism is seen as a developmental interactive disorder with often a good prognosis

What we do:

  • Home Consultation Programme: bespoke support for parents of a child with autism, developmental and/or behavioural issues; home visits and review meetings (face to face or on skype); play-based child-centred interactive developmental approaches
  • DIRFloortime training (with videos of children's progress): play-based holistic Developmental, Individual differences, Relationship-based approach to autism and developmental issues + re-assessing a child's strengths and weaknesses
  • 'Learning how to learn' Waldon sessions/training: system of ideas and activities for those with autism, developmental and/or learning difficulties to build up their ‘general understanding’, the basis of all further learning; with low-cost play materials
  • MindBuilders' Play Manual BOOK: Playing with Babies, Playing in the Family, Playing and Autism: Practical Ideas for Healthy Development, Play and Behaviour at Home. Illustrated practical ideas to facilitate play and family interaction at home

Our users say:

Until we started working with you, we never thought we would see such amazing progress in our boy's autism. Your home visits really help us to understand our child better. Your developmental approach feels so different from what everybody else does.
