Hi, I'm Sally. I am a 37 year old mum of 3 wonderful kiddos.
About 4 years ago my middle son was diagnosed with Level 3 Autism and Level 2 ADHD. He is 8 now, and I have spent the last 4 years learning all about neurodiversity.
Last year I was tested and diagnosed with both Autism and ADHD, as well as my youngest being recently diagnosed with ADHD. As you can see, we are a very neurospicy family here. 🌶🌶🌶🌶🌶🌶

I am also a home-schooling mum of my middle son. He is in year 2 now, and this is our 3rd year home schooling. During these years I have come to realise a lot of educational resources are not suitable for kids on the spectrum. 🧩🧩🧩

Reading books that are frightening to say the least. Too dark, too bright, too cluttered and chaotic.
Different layouts for each book, different fonts. It's just too overwhelming for our neurodiverse kids. This is where I come in, I have created 5 early readers books in a calm, predictable way. 🌻🌻🌻🌻

They have activities in each book and is a fun way for kids to learn to read. This is only the first set of readers and plan on making numerous sets at all reading levels.

I am excited by this and am absolutely loving the process. My son has been helping me choose calm, appropriate characters for my books that don't frighten him.

These books will be available to download as Ebooks, physical books sent to you, and printables. 📚📚📚

You may have noticed I have my calm corner poster set, I will also be adding more designs to those.
As well as A sensory shop. This will include hand made sensory calm down bottles, packs of sensory fidgets, and supplies to help out little ones. 🪀🪁🎨🪢🔮

Of course my offerings are not just for neurodivergent kids, they will be suitable for all kids.
Down the line you may see home school curriculums, and many more exciting things. So stay tuned, this Neurodivergent Mum is passionate about supporting our little ones and making our job as parents a little more relaxing.
So stay tuned folks, it's going to be big year for The Gentle ND Mum. 🎉🎉🎉

I will add, these books covers are not the final copies, so please ignore any errors 🤣

And just like that I have my first set of Calm Corner posters for sale. Click on the link below.
Purchasing will give you a set of 12 posters, instant printable downloads. A2, A3, A4, A5. Print at home, or get them laminated. The choice is yours.
I have created these with love and an understanding of how neurodivergent brains function. Most of the time Calm corner posters are too bright, and too complicated for little ones to understand. I have created them using calming pastel colours, easy to read and follow along posters.
