Understanding and Supporting Your Child: Explore Our Autism Courses for Parents

As a parent, raising a child with autism can be a journey full of joy, challenges, and endless learning opportunities. At The Curly Hair Project, we understand the questions and concerns that arise when your child receives an autism diagnosis. We also understand that navigating these challenges can be even more complicated if you have yet to receive a diagnosis, especially when you require support.

We have been working with parents for many years through our webinars, and from our own experiences, we have created a range of autism courses for parents specifically designed to support parents like you.

Insightful Guidance is written for parents by Alis Rowe.

The Curly Hair Project was founded by Alis Rowe, who was diagnosed with Asperger’s Syndrome in adulthood. Before her diagnosis, she had always felt isolated and different but was unsure of the reason why. Her experiences motivated her to establish a platform that provides firsthand insights into autism. By sharing these insights, parents can better understand their child’s behaviours and experiences, leading to stronger connections and more effective support strategies.

Discover Practical Strategies for Everyday Challenges

We offer courses that can help you support your child’s growth and development in many stages of their life, from their early school years in Reception to attending College.

Our courses cover various topics, from managing anxiety to improving communication skills and navigating sensory sensitivities. We want to help you better understand what it’s like for your autistic child and how they experience the world through their senses, like sight, smell, taste, touch, balance, and body awareness. We’ll also teach you simple and practical ways to make your child’s environment more comfortable and enjoyable.

Building Stronger Family Bonds

Communication can be a real challenge for parents of children with autism. Our courses can help you connect better with your child and understand their unique communication style. We teach you practical strategies to bridge communication gaps and build stronger relationships with your child. Our courses provide insights on interpreting your child’s cues and responding in ways that promote understanding. You’ll learn to step into your child’s shoes and see the world from their perspective, creating a more supportive family environment.

Tailored Learning Experiences

We offer different learning experiences depending on your needs. If you need support with a specific topic, such as Autism & Anxiety or Autism & Sensory Processing, you can choose from our single courses. We also have bundle courses available that can help you save money while learning. Each course offers narrated presentations and unique, charming, sweet animations based on the central character, The Girl With The Curly Hair, and her experiences in different situations. You’ll also receive a certificate of completion at the end of your course.

Alis, who is the creator of The Curly Hair Project, wasn’t diagnosed until she was an adult, and her life was unbearable up until that point. She never wants anyone to feel as isolated and anxious as she did. Alis is now living a more comfortable and fulfilling life and this is only because of the strategies she has devised and succinctly communicated in the e-courses.

Along with our e-courses, we also have a variety of resources for parents such as:
