What my clients say about me

support for children with Autism

Thank you so very much for your support, guidance, and advice with my son. You are number one in my book and I believe we have been very privileged to work with you. I will always remember your amazing support, your incredible skill level, your warm and friendly manner, and your sparkling personality. You have been such a joy to work with. I hope your new clients (and their schools) realise what a gem they are getting in you.”

Lisa Gale – McLaren Vale

“Nicky has been a wonderful support to my son. She has worked with him for the last 5 years and has helped him with friendships and to have better understanding with his emotions and recognising emotions of others. Nicky’s patience and kindness is so greatly appreciated, I don’t know where we would be without her.”

What is autism

“Thank you Nicky!! You and Macklin have covered so much ground and it really shows with him. His confidence, and friendships have been positively impacted by all the intensive support you have provided. We are so very grateful for your support and expertise, and we are pleased we’ve had the best ASD facilitator there is to work with our boy.”

Kerri – Fleurieu Peninsula

“Nicky Lucy is and has been a wonderful support for my 2 girls with ASD Alyssa & Kaiya. Each session Nicky provides them with tools and skills that allow them to grow and progress successfully at home, in school and in the community.

They learn so much in each session such as social skills, self regulation techniques and ways to help manage emotions and anxiety. The girls have a lot of fun learning new skills each time through art, games and role play.

We are very lucky to have Nicky supporting our family and highly recommend her to all.”

Jessica Ward – Aldinga Beach

family support for ASD

“Nicky started working with my 15-year old daughter early last year. At the time my daughter was struggling to go to school and, when she did manage to go, to stay for more than one or two lessons before retreating to students services and home. Nicky communicates in a very effective, straight-forward manner and my daughter really feels that Nicky ‘gets her’. She has taught my daughter to reflect on the way she communicates and how that impacts on the way others respond to her. The sessions she has spent with Nicky have changed her life. She now knows she can manage her anxiety, that she can’t always control how others react or respond but that’s okay.
She is now talking about having a future in which she will go to university, have friends, live independently and travel. Thank you so much Nicky.
