Question 1

What is the Cost of the Program?

Accepted Answer

Imagine walking into a supermarket and enquiring "what will be the cost of my weekly groceries?" It really depends on 2 factors, [a] your family's needs, and [b] your budget. Doesn't it?

Each child on Spectrum is unique; and so are their needs and abilities. Autism 360™ is NOT an online course with bunch of generic videos for carers to watch and learn. The program, just like any other therapy, is uniquely tailored to your child's specific goals. So the pricing varies based on your specific situation.

|| Autism 360™ is a Parent Mediated Therapy Program wherein you'll work one-on-one with a team of multi-disciplinary professionals to help you meet your child's specific goals. These goals, could be improved communication & social skills, behaviour/emotional regulation, learning & cognitive abilities, or anything that is closely aligned to your child's NDIS objectives.

This multi-disciplinary team of professionals may include (read the type of Coaches we employ):

a Speech Therapist/SLP
a Behaviour Therapist (or Psychologist)
an Occupational or Sensory Enrichment therapist, and
a Special Educator

That said, our pricing is transparent and all inclusive. When you work with us, you will know our charges upfront and there will be no hidden fees or surcharges.

Question 3

What Age groups do you Support?

Accepted Answer

Our program is most effective for kids between 2 to 12 years old. Often, a child's needs change as they approach teenage or puberty. And in such cases our model may not be as effective :-(

For kids 13 to 17 yo and older, we can determine serviceability on a case-by-case basis after an initial evaluation. At this point, we are not well equipped to work with 18 yo+ adults on the spectrum.

If your child is between 13 to 17 yo…

In such cases, we encourage you to fill out the EOI form using this link and in the subsequent page, choose a date and time for an initial call using the online calendar. During this call, we'll carefully evaluate your needs and then articulate the next steps.

There is no charge for this call. And if we are unable to help, we'll be honest and upfront about it.

Question 4

Do I need to pay Upfront?

Accepted Answer

You are NOT required to pay upfront should you choose to work with Autism 360™. We understand how NDIS works and we stand by its code of conduct.

When we share the fixed price quote for 90 days (Read What is the Cost of Autism 360™) we will also share with you a full breakdown with a Schedule of Services.

Typically the payment is split into 3 equal invoices:

Payment Milestone 1: after 21 days of Service (for start date)
Payment Milestone 2: after 60 days from Service start date
Payment Milestone 3: after 90 days of Service i.e. at the completion of the Program

| We understand that after receiving the invoice, you may need additional time to request the payment from MyGov/Portal, or from your Plan manager. For this reason, all our invoices are only due 7 days after they are sent.

Question 5

Is Autism 360™ Evidence Based?

Accepted Answer

Autism 360™ only implements Evidence-based strategies based on extensive research and data collection. The framework is build upon Parent mediated intervention approach which believes that parents (when empowered with the right set of tools, resources and some guided support) are in best position to develop their child's skills.

||| Typically, a child may receive therapy for a few hours a week, but when they are back in their normal home settings, the usual process of life takes over. Hence, the skills acquired (during the therapy hours) are not consistently reflected.

In comparison, when parents are trained to embed and implement the same strategies throughout the usual daily chores, the child gets way more opportunities to practice and implement the same skills. And, more practice, significantly improves the time they take to acquire the skills.

Could be as high as 5 to 7 times more effective!

No kidding! The compounding effects of implementing interest-based strategies (at home with parents) throughout the day could be exponential. There are countless research articles to substantiate this claim. Here are just a few recent ones:

Question 6

What a 12 Week Program Plan looks like?

Accepted Answer

The 12 weeks Program Plan is created by your Coach (therapist) after your initial Goal planning session. Initially, the program looks much like a scaffolding (or an initial outline) that is subsequently enriched each week with detailed therapy outline and underpinned strategies.

Some essential characteristics of a great Program Plan:

Each week is laser focused on a micro goal - a baby step which is easy to achieve but is a fundamental prerequisite to the 90 days SMART goal
Focus is always on Progress, NOT perfection
Program plan is not rigid or set in stone - each week, you and your coach inspect the plan and its applicability and make any necessary course corrections

Example of a High Level Structure:
