A Guide to Navigating School Pick-Ups for ADHD Mums
If the thought of navigating school pick-up makes you want to fake a dentist appointment or hide behind your sunglasses, you’re not alone – and this guide is for you.
Written by a neurodivergent mum who’s been there (and avoided there entirely), this 75-page guide tackles the unique challenges ADHD mums face in playground socialising. From the unspoken social rules that everyone else seems to know to the overwhelming sensory chaos of pick-up lines and school events, Navigating School Pick-Up is here to help you navigate it all with strategies that actually work for you.
This isn’t about forcing yourself to fit into neurotypical expectations – it’s about finding tools that let you show up authentically, build meaningful connections, and reduce the stress that comes with school pick-up.
