Therapy And Working
A MyAutismTeam Member asked a question 💭

Hello everyone!!! I am a single mom whose 2 year old daughter was recently diagnosis with Autism. My question for everyone is how do you manage working and making sure your child has the proper amount of therapy needed? If your child has received less than the recommended therapy hours have you seen improvement? The center I go through recommends 32 hours a week 6 days a week.

This is hard because i feel the same way! I have to work part time so im home when the therapist here. My son goes to school from 7:30am-2:40pm, then he gets home at 3 and his aba therapist is here at my house waiting to do therapy with him till 5pm. He gets 13 hours aba therapy per week but we dont have time to do all 13. we usually do 9-10 hours a week. Therapy has helped his tremendously and 9 hours is ok for him. he was diagnosed with mild autism. I work from 8:30-12:30 in the morning. By the time im done cooking and cleaning the therapist and my son are home. I dont have too much time to do other things. If i want a day to my self my fiance usually takes my son out to the park or i got out.
