1:1 SEND Support

 

Individual support, built around your child.

Every child is different, and sometimes a smaller, more individual approach can make all the difference.

Through Together: One Step at a Time, I offer 1:1 play-focused support for children with additional needs, using their interests, strengths and individual needs as the starting point.

Sessions are relaxed, child-led and designed to help children feel safe, understood and successful.

How can I help?

1:1 sessions can support areas such as:

• Speech, language and communication

• Social interaction and turn-taking

• Play skills and imagination

• Emotional regulation

• Attention and engagement

• Fine motor skills and hand strength

• Sensory exploration and sensory needs

• Confidence and independence

• Supporting transitions and changes

• Developing play through your child’s interests

Sessions are play-focused, using activities and resources that are meaningful and motivating for your child.

​

What does a session look like?

There isn’t a set activity list because your child is at the centre of the session.

We might explore sensory play, Lego, role play, messy play, games, books, puzzles or a favourite interest — while naturally building opportunities for communication, interaction, problem-solving, motor skills and emotional regulation.

I can also use visuals, social stories and other supportive resources where appropriate.

After sessions, I provide parents/carers with feedback so you know what we have worked on, what your child enjoyed and any observations or ideas that may be useful to continue at home.

​

Who is it for?

My 1:1 support is suitable for children who may benefit from a little extra support with their development, communication, play, sensory needs or social interaction.

A formal diagnosis isn’t always needed. If you’re unsure whether Together could support your child, please get in touch for an informal chat.

A calm, supportive approach

There is no pressure for your child to perform, sit still or complete a set list of tasks.

I believe children learn best when they feel safe, comfortable and interested in what they’re doing.

Small steps matter — and sometimes those small steps are the biggest achievements.
