Inside The Spectrum: What's behind the behaviours?

In this episode we explore one of the most important topics for parents and caregivers: the early signs of autism in children and how to know when it may be time to seek a formal diagnosis.

Our guest from Autism SA discuss what early developmental differences can look like—from communication delays and limited social engagement to sensory sensitivities and repetitive behaviours, while emphasising that every child develops at their own pace. We discuss what’s typical, what may signal the need for further assessment, and why early identification can make such a meaningful difference.

This episode aims to reassure and empower families ,reminding them they’re not alone and that support is available at every stage. Whether you’re a parent, educator, or simply wanting to better understand neurodevelopment, this conversation offers clarity, compassion, and practical guidance.
