[quote=Anonymous]I have a flexible schedule with my job. But it is still tough. I do so much driving to therapies: speech, OT and tutoring right now. But we used to also do behavioral therapy. You just have to prioritize things. What are his biggest deficits that need therapy right now? If it's speech, then that is the most important. Send the nanny to the other appointments if you can only do one appointment a week. I also got a mobile hot spot so I can sit in the waiting room and work while my child did his OT and speech. This helped my stress level so I didn't walk back into a shit storm of work when I got back online. Remember that you, your husband and any other children have needs too. All of this has to be balanced. I only mention this bc I was killing myself only attending to the needs of my SN child. No one else got anything and this wasn't right (at least not for my family.) Things do get better, but they will also change. You have to constantly adapt your strategies. Good luck![/quote]
