Meet the author Sarah Hayden

Everything you've ever wanted to know about parenting (and celebrating!) your neurodivergent child from parenting expert, social worker and mother of five Sarah Hayden.

Join us for an inspiring evening with neurodivergent advocate Sarah Hayden. In her book, Parenting Different, Sarah shares her journey of raising neurodivergent children, including her daughter Chloé Hayden, a renowned actor, author, and autism advocate. Sarah offers practical tools and heartfelt insights on supporting neurodivergent kids through diagnosis, family life, siblings, schooling, puberty, therapy, food, peer relationships and so much more.

With warmth, humour and just a little bit of sparkle, Parenting Different shows you how to help your neurodivergent child not just survive but thrive in a neurotypical world.

Sarah Hayden is a qualified social worker and equine-assisted psychotherapist, a dedicated volunteer who has provided emotional support to disaster-affected communities and asylum-seekers, and a mother of five. She and her husband have fostered 55 children. Sarah is neurodivergent herself, having finally (and not surprisingly) been diagnosed with ADHD at the age of 48.
