Autism From The Start

Thank you Lenexa Historical Society for putting our sweet House in the spotlight. Her restoration and expansion is a dear and meaningful passion project of ours at Autism From The Start. We can't wait to show her off at our Open House in May! #autismcenterwithheartandsoul

The Most Wonderful Time of Year...and day of the week--It was a wonderful Fun Friday at AFTS Children's House. Check it out: plus.smilebox.com/play?g=d70104b…

We had a SPOOKTACULAR time at our Fall Festival today! Who doesn't love a good time in good weather with good people doing silly, good things!?!?!? Huge shout out to the Olathe Northwest High School National Honor Society group for all their help.

We can't get enough of this season--the playtime outside with friends, the wildlife, the fall happenings and holidays, the weather.... All of us kids--big and small--can't get enough! #aftschildrenshouse #aftslove #weloveourhouse #autism #earlyintervention #abatherapy

Backyard Joy at the AFTS Children's House. I love this place and these people! 😍

4 years ago, on Monday June 6, 2016, we opened our doors to the first children attending the Autism From The Start Children's House. Here is a toast to all the children, families, and staff (past & present) who have built this House with love and laughter. Cheers to you all! 💙

3 years ago, the universe gifted us the sweetest 'Beauty and Brains' combo ever...Rachel. She shows up smiling & ready to work, spending her hours playing with the kids while supportively guiding her supervisees. She is a treasure...a rare find. We are blessed to have her. 💙

Here is a special message to our AFTS families and those sweet children we serve:

Happy Birthday to the cool cat of the bunch, Sarah! She is remarkably level-headed, generous with her time and support given to others, and genuine to her core. We hope your birthday is as cool as you!!! 💙 Your AFTS Family

We've been blessed for an entire year with an angel.....Lauren. She has a pure heart and an emanating warmth about her. Today is her 1-year anniversary and she is currently soaking in her 1-month-old baby girl. Can't wait until we can hug them both! Love from your AFTS Family! 💙

Happy Birthday to our sweet Olivia. A reflective, caring soul with a drive to make others happy. She demonstrates such love for our kids and a genuine affinity for our staff. Olivia is a gem and we love her so! Happy (yesterday) birthday lovely lady!! 💙 Your AFTS Family

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO OUR BEST MAN! Jordan is our one and only....man, that is. He is a caring soul, helping friend, and tender therapist. Jordan has been with us for a long time and I expect he'll be with us for a long time to come. We are all the better for it. 💙 Your AFTS Family

Thursday was World Autism Awareness and Acceptance Day so I want to send love to the amazing kids we serve, to their beautiful families, and to my heartfelt staff--all of whom work together to help the world embrace ASD and help our kids learn to embrace the world.💙 Dr. Michelle
