When you learn your child is "delayed" is some capacity, it doesn't bring about feelings of great joy or prized accomplishments.

There are a variety of challenges that come with navigating the unique profile of a SEND child. There are also complications with how others perceive and attempt to educate on the overall outcomes of a child based on diagnosis or notification of needs.

In this episode Nat and Dee review what it is like to hear about delays in child development and how to overcome the unsolicited labels and occasional lack of ability placed on those with SEND.

Often many take for granted the ability to have your child cared for while you work, rest or play.

For millions of SEND parents this is a luxury. There are financial implications to getting help; often schools will opt out, care providers may decide they are inclusive, but just not for your child and friends and family generally do not have to assist or lack in confidence if your child has additional or complex needs.

This episode looks into what it can be like finding suitable extra-curricular activities and wrap around care for those who parent SEND children.
