What is an Autism Assessment?
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental condition that affects:
* Communication
* Social interaction
* Behaviour
* Sensory processing
* Everyday functioning
Autism is usually identified in early childhood, often between 2 and 3 years of age, although some children are diagnosed later.
Every child with autism is different. Some children may have mild social difficulties, while others may need more significant support.
At Sunshine Kids Clinic, our developmental and autism assessments are tailored to each child’s individual needs.

What does the assessment involve?
Autism assessments are usually completed over more than one appointment.
Initial Parent Appointment
The first session is generally with parents or caregivers only, without the child present.
This appointment gives you the opportunity to discuss:
* Your concerns
* Your child’s development
* Behaviour at home and school
* Social and communication skills
* Emotional or sensory concerns
This helps our team determine whether a formal autism assessment is recommended.
