Thriive is designed for parents and carers of neurodivergent children (ADHD, autism, dyslexia, dyspraxia, sensory processing differences, and more). Whether you have a diagnosis or are still figuring things out, Thriive helps you manage daily life.

My child hasn't been formally diagnosed yet. Is this still useful?

Absolutely. Many of the strategies in Thriive are helpful for any child who struggles with focus, emotional regulation, or executive function — diagnosis or not.

What features does Thriive include?

Thriive includes visual routine builders, a challenge tracker with pattern detection, a strategy library tailored to your child's neurodivergent profile, daily check-ins, mood tracking, and shareable reports for doctors and schools.

Yes — Thriive is free to start with core features. A Pro tier is available for families who want advanced tracking, unlimited routines, and additional features.

Is this just for UK families?

While Thriive includes UK-specific resources (NHS, SENCO, EHCP guidance), the core strategies and tools are universal. Families worldwide use Thriive to support their neurodivergent children.

Preparing for an Assessment

You're unsure what to expect from a neurodevelopmental assessment

Steps

Speak to your doctor and request a referral. Be specific about your concerns
Keep a diary of behaviours over 2-4 weeks: frequency, triggers, impact
Ask school for written observations (teachers see things parents don't)
Gather developmental history: milestones, early concerns, family history
Prepare a list of questions for the assessment team

What you need

A notebook or phone for tracking, school contact details, patience with wait times

Why it works

The assessment process can feel overwhelming and opaque. Preparing in advance means you arrive with clear evidence rather than trying to remember everything on the spot. Professionals make better assessments when they have a comprehensive picture of your child's daily life.

Age guidance

Relevant at any age when you suspect neurodivergence. Earlier assessment often means earlier support, but it's never too late to seek one.

Real-world example

Many parents say they wished they'd started the diary earlier. Writing down specific examples — not just 'bad morning' but 'refused to get dressed, threw shoes, took 45 minutes to leave the house' — made their concerns concrete and impossible to dismiss.

Troubleshooting

If your doctor is reluctant, you can self-refer to some services or seek a second opinion
Private assessments are generally accepted by schools and health services
Join local parent support groups while you wait. They're invaluable
