Child recently diagnosed

Hi everyone, 

My daughter who is four has recently been diagnosed with autism and any insights or information that can be shared with me will be ever so helpful! I've not took the time to read too much until we got that confirmation which was received yesterday. She can't speak and likes to babble excessively which makes bedtimes and any other stressful times difficult. I was told that the part of her mind that takes information in such as learning words and how to speak is slow and doesn't process as quickly as the other parts of her brain meaning she uses more visual aid. 

I honestly haven't took the time to read too much into autism before we got that diagnosis and was pointed to several websites and charities that will help.

Thanks for your support, lots of love to those out there who may need that little extra help but is still just as amazing as the rest of us!
