HELP NEW TO THIS AND NEEDING ADVICE PLEASE

4 year old daughter newly diagnosed,dont know, what to do or who to turn to she has just started mainstream nursery and the class has got so large she cannot cope and i am struggling to get her home after nursery and she is constantly trying to grab and smother toddlers and babies.It took the teacher ,a mum and myself that was in tears to get her to let go of a wee one today,luckily the mum was so nice but i cannot go anywhere and she lunges at babies in buggies or toddlers.Im scared and feel I have no support from anyone my husband is in denial has made no effort to learn about autism and his answer to todays upset was "tell her she wont get back to nursery if she does that again"god if it was only that easy,fool he is we have two older children and about time he realised he needs to parent our little one differently.Any IDEAS,have contacted edu physc but no reply as yet as feel she would benefit from a smaller group or specialized help but dont know where to access information X

  • Have you had anycontact with the sen at the school? They would be your first point of call for a statement.  If you successfully applied for a statement the school would get money to provide care support in school. My son was in mainstream education for reception with a statement but we then realised this was not the best option for him and decided on a special school. Again this was organised by the senco at the school. You can also phone your council to speak to the education or disability team.
