Early Intervention

When we talk about early intervention, we mean providing support during your child’s early years that is strengths-based, child-led, and affirming of their identity.

It’s not about changing who your child is, but about giving them the tools, strategies, and opportunities they need to communicate, regulate, learn, and thrive in ways that work best for them.

At Inspired by Autism, I provide home-based early intervention services for young autistic children up to 6 years, designed to nurture their unique strengths through a child-led, strengths-based approach.

Together, we identify priority learning goals that matter most for your child and family. These may include:

  • Communication and language development (including AAC devices, Lámh, and other supports)

  • Emotional regulation

  • Early learning skills

  • Academic foundations

  • Toilet learning

  • And more, based on your child’s needs

How it works:

  1. Initial Consultation – We begin with a consultation to get to know your child, your family, and your goals.

  2. Six-Week Block – If you decide to continue, you can book a block of six pre-confirmed sessions.

    • The first session focuses on relationship building and assessment.

    • From there, we set clear, individualised targets and begin intervention in a supportive, structured way.

Every step is centred around your child’s interests, strengths, and pace of learning, helping them develop the skills they need to thrive—while ensuring families feel supported and involved throughout the process.

Fees:

  • Initial Consultation: €75

  • Six-Week Block of Pre-Booked Sessions: €480

This reflects the highly individualised, home-based service I provide, drawing on over a decade of specialised experience in autism education and leadership. Each session includes not only direct intervention but also planning, assessment, and ongoing guidance for families, ensuring high-quality, consistent support.

Testimonials

  • Eimear & Nora -

    "Jessie has been a remarkable influence in my daughter Nora’s life from a very young age. She began working with Nora before her first birthday as her early intervention tutor, and from the very start, she stood out as someone exceptional. Jessie not only took me seriously as a parent but also worked tirelessly to support both Nora and me through those crucial early years. Her connection with Nora was nothing short of magical. Jessie always came prepared, bringing with her a wonderful variety of engaging toys and activities. She showed me what to do, patiently guided me, and always made time to ensure I felt confident in continuing the work with Nora at home. I truly credit Jessie with teaching Nora how to speak a milestone that has been life-changing for her development. Jessie’s dedication, warmth, and professionalism shone through in everything she did. She worked incredibly hard, never cutting corners, and her creativity and commitment made every session meaningful and impactful. I cannot recommend Jessie highly enough. She is both deeply professional and wonderfully personable, with a gift for connecting with children and empowering families. Any family would be fortunate to have her support."
