I have a daughter who is currently awaiting diagnosis for pda austism and quite possibly some other things in the mix.
I have struggled to find a relaxing place for my daughter so I’m opening a private sensory roomI plan to do complete room hires also small group sessions for primary aged children with special needs and well as babies
Just had my location confirmed it’s in a converted barn on a farm very peaceful Just wanted to ask for other mums help and suggestions to what they would like to see? What would put them off also
I’m looking around £5/7 a child for a hour group session with a max of 5 kidsTo hire out exclusively and share if you wish with a friend £25 an hour
Unsure whether to make have a ball pond and soft play shapes as not sure if it will take the calming aspect away
I would really appreciate any help at all my life savings are building it and really can’t afford for it to go wrong!
HiNAS24904I have just come across this forum as I had a similar idea recently. I would be in the same situation as yourself and would be investing everything I have into this.
I work with children who have been diagnosed with autism and also children with trauma and attachment difficulties. I access the sensory room we have in school on a regular basis. To see the difference in these children is my ultimate goal.
I have a few questions if you dont mind answering?
Did you set the sensory room up ?
Approximately how much did it cost you to start this up ? Renting a place ? Equipment etc ?
Has it been successful ?
Have you recouped what you invested into this ?
I would really appreciate any help in answering these questions.
Thank you
