Testimonials
I have often thought about you and what you have done for us and I truly believe that my child would have been in a different place had you not come into our lives to save us, for this I am forever grateful. I often speak of you to my patients and recommend your services to them. You are brilliant.
Parent in Gateshead
Corine and her associates were very professional when working with our daughter, who has autism. They were reliable, punctual and engaged our daughter very well. Her communication and ability to do tasks certainly improved after their input. I would highly recommend her service for those who want additional help for their autistic child.
Parent in Washington
Ailsa is quite simply a wonderful, patient and creative person. She worked for several years with my autistic/learning disabled son and helped him so much to become the man he is today. He loved Ailsa and always will.
Parent in Glasgow
I just wanted to let you know that my child passed his SATs in the top 2% in the uk, he smashed it completely. He is wonderful and a lot of the work you did contributed to that. I just wanted to let you know and say thanks again for everything you did.

Sometimes, the best way to help your child is by empowering you. Our parent coaching sessions offer clear, supportive guidance to help you feel more confident, connected, and equipped to handle all those everyday parenting challenges. Online consultation sessions are tailored to the individual needs of your child and your family.
Sleep Consulting
Struggling with sleep? You’re not alone. Our remote sleep support offers gentle, evidence-based strategies to help your child (and everyone in your household) get better rest. This service will provide you with a personalised sleep plan, ongoing support, and adjustments as needed to make sure everything is working for you and your child.
Behaviour Consulting
Sensory challenges, anxiety and meltdowns can make daily life very difficult for both children and their families. Working with you via video calls, we provide compassionate, practical support to help you understand the root cause behind challenging behaviours and respond in ways that reduce stress and keep everyone safe.
Not sure where to start? We'll help you figure it out.
Does my child need a diagnosis of autism to access this service?
The short answer is... no! Little Talks Autism Consulting offers support to children who demonstrate signs of autism, but there is no need for your child to have a formal autism diagnosis. We have supported families with children who have no diagnosis or who have other diagnoses such as ADHD and Global Developmental Delay. If you are not sure if our service would be a good fit for your family, we'd be happy to talk it through.
Life with a child on the spectrum can bring both joy and big challenges. You don’t have to navigate it alone. We’re here to support you and your family with compassion, understanding and practical guidance every step of the way.
