Which Areas of Life Improve the Most?
The top 5 areas where parents report the most improvements in the first 6 months are: Communication, Sensory Processing, Self-awareness (Crucial for social skills), Food Diversification and Sleep.
When you start the program you get to score over 300 questions by how much of a challenge they are for your special person on a scale of 1 to 5.
Twice a month you also score how much improvement you see, if any, in each one of these areas.
After doing this program with about 4,000 families, we can do some interesting statistics.
For example, you can see what areas tend to improve first.
