  Canberra M. asked:

  My question is two parts: Our 5yo has just been diagnosed on the autism spectrum... 1. We are in need of a good OT. Can you recommend anyone? 2. My husband and I would like to talk to someone about our feelings and how to cope ourselves (not in a group). Can you recommend anyone? Thank you!

  Melina M. asked:

  Can anyone recommend primary schools in the Currumbin area? I have been looking into Elanora which seem to be very flexible with hours for prep and working around the child's needs but it is a very big school.

  Heidi, the only school I know of on the Gold Coast that runs a nice Early Intervention program is Musgrave Hill at Southport 5532 7049 or you could call Autism Early Intervention 1800 277 328 and ask them if there is a service in your area ?

  ASD I. asked:

  Hello everyone, I'm just wondering if there is a support group for children with siblings with ASD I have a 8 year old daughter and I feel that she is starting to feel left out or like she is missing out because of the time and attention my 7year old ASD son requires, we spend as much time with her one on one as we can but she still feels like she is missing out, does anyone have any suggestions on where we might be able to find some sort of group or something she could join to maybe help her understand his needs and make her feel like she is doing something special just for her? I hope this all makes sense lol Thank you all in advance :-) Crystal
