Hey, I'm so glad you're here! Welcome to Ausome Homegrown Learners- where we share the real, unfiltered ins and outs of our autism journey and how it shows up in our regulation-first homeschooling, travel, and everyday life. I've got a Master's in Elementary Education and a PhD in Curriculum and Instruction focused on autism and special education, but most of what you'll see here comes from lived experience and lots of learning alongside my kids. We have been homeschooling for 4 years, and along the way we have learned that learning doesn't have to look "traditional" to be meaningful. Here you'll find autism-informed homeschool ideas, regulation-first strategies, honest neurodivergent parenting conversations, tips for traveling with autistic kids, and what real life actually looks like day to day. If you are looking for encouragement, practical tools, and a reminder that you're not doing this wrong - you are in the right place. Hit subscribe and come come walk this journey with us.
