Rhyme & Reason empowers families, educators, and autistic individuals with practical, visual, and structured supports so that everyday routines become opportunities for learning, communication, and joyful independence—at home, at school, and in the community.
Rhyme & Reason is an autism innovation centre that was born out of one family’s journey and has grown into a warm, practical support space for many. We blend lived experience, professional training, and years of hands-on work with autistic children, teens, and young adults to create home- and school-friendly solutions that actually fit real life.
We believe that children learn best when the world around them is predictable, visual, and respectful of their pace. That’s why our work centres around structured routines, visual supports, and step-by-step parent training so that brushing teeth, getting dressed, going to school, or visiting a restaurant can become repeated opportunities for learning, communication, and independence.
Through our online programs, visual toolkits, and personalised guidance, we help parents, educators, and therapists understand how to teach, not just what to teach. Whether you are just starting out after a diagnosis or looking for the “next step” with an older child, we are here to walk alongside you, one small, doable change at a time..
a blend of lived experience, professional training, and creative problem-solving. Together, we turn everyday routines into structured, supportive opportunities for autistic children, teens, and their families.
