Workshops for autism parents, caregivers, and educators

I am glad you stopped by this site, where you, as a parent, relative, friend, caregiver, or educator of an autistic child, will find some great books, products, and resources.

I am an author, public speaker, and Certified Autism Resource Specialist from the Netherlands. After working abroad as a teacher and humanitarian for 25 years, I moved to the US in 2006 and assumed the care of my then 6-month-old grandson, Logan. There were signs of autism at an early age, and the diagnosis became official in 2009. I have been his advocate and passionate about promoting autism awareness, acceptance, and action ever since.

Logan is the inspiration behind the Autism Is…? series of children’s books I initially wrote for him and later published. I currently live in California with my now teenage grandson, and besides writing, I present autism training workshops for early childhood educators, parents, and caregivers. You can read more about my story in my latest book, Autism on a Shoestring Budget,
[Early] Intervention Made Easier.

I hope you will enjoy your visit and that you will leave refreshed and armed with helpful tips and tools.
