Travelling without my son advice

[midwifeelady3]

Hi guys I’ll be going on a girls trip out of the country to the Caribbean and my son will be staying home my sister jas volunteered to look after him as well as his dad but he works a lot so she will be doing most of the work my son his autistic and he’s 4 years old

any help on what to make sure to provide or tips for my sister (she doesn’t have kids )

Write down his usual routine, including things he will/won't eat, what helps get him to sleep, what helps if he's upset etc.

Pack him a few presents to open throughout the week - things to do with his auntie e.g. stickers, play dough, colouring.

Maybe set him some challenges for the week to help focus times that are challenging e.g. help auntie go cook tea, make up a dance and ask auntie to record it and send it to mummy to learn too.
