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.

Morning Prep for Dyspraxia

Your child struggles with buttons, zips, and getting dressed independently

Steps

Lay out clothes the night before in the ORDER they go on
Choose clothes with elastic waists, pull-on shoes, and minimal fastenings
Use a visual 'getting dressed' sequence at their eye level
Allow extra time. Rushing increases frustration
Celebrate independence: 'You did your socks all by yourself!'

What you need

Adaptive clothing, visual sequence card, extra time built into morning

Why it works

Dyspraxia affects motor planning and sequencing, which means tasks like getting dressed require significantly more cognitive effort. Removing physical barriers (complex fastenings) and providing visual sequences reduces the demand on an already overloaded system, freeing up energy for the task itself.

Age guidance

Most impactful for ages 3-9. Older children may need support transitioning to school uniform adaptations and building independence with specific fastenings.

Real-world example

One parent switched to all pull-on clothing and saw an immediate change — their child went from needing 20 minutes of help to getting dressed independently in 10. The confidence boost was even bigger than the time saved.

Troubleshooting

Occupational therapists can recommend specific adaptive clothing brands
Practise fastenings during calm, low-pressure times, not during the morning rush
Shoe horns and loop-pull zips make a huge difference
