Autism & Travel
an Online Course for Special Families

A course born from a true story.
And maybe, one very similar to yours.
I started traveling with Davide when he was just 3 years old.
ABA therapy had just begun and soon I found the right strategies to engage him and spark his interest in going outside.
I prepared him for outings with the right tools, gently encouraging his curiosity.

We started with small day trips:
a Sunday at the lake, a walk in the woods or by the river, a hike in the mountains.
Places chosen based on his interests, his need for routine and following his emotions.

And step by step… those new places became his places.
His comfort zone expanded, and it was no longer so difficult to introduce something new.

Traveling with an autistic child is important

because our children need to gain a wide range of experiences to learn.

Traveling isn’t just about exploring the world, it also means going out to do everyday activities like grocery shopping, visiting the park, going to the zoo, or seeing friends and family.

Our main goal is to leave the house, visit a new place, and do so peacefully.

This course covers various topics related to travel planning, combined with ABA behavioral techniques that I have studied and experienced over the years.

The course aims to help families with autistic children gain confidence in traveling and embark on trips and vacation with peace of mind.
