These strategies and approaches can vary based on temperament, personality, sensory processing needs, neurodivergence, exposure to trauma, developmental delays, and other aspects of the individual.

Below are just a few of the child behavior and self-regulation red flags that may indicate that a child requires additional support. Want more? Comment with a 🚩 and we will send them your way!
