Sleep Service
Sleep Service
We at Reinforcement Unlimited, LLC are very excited to offer a Sleep Consultation Service to parents. Sleep is one of the most taken-for-granted aspects of our children’s lives and yet disruptions in sleep are very common among children with an Autism Spectrum disorder.
“Who’s turn is it?” That is a question that parents of newborns are familiar with and most parents can laugh about by the time their child is a toddler. For parents of children with an Autism Spectrum Disorder that question often remains all too familiar well past having a toddler.
Sleep disorders may worsen daytime mood and behaviors such as self injury and aggression in children. It has a negative impact on cognitive and academic skills in all children. Research indicates that sleep deprivation also has a negative impact on sustained attention, memory, complex language tasks, and visiospatial skills.
