Managing Carer Burnout: Virtual MyTime

Caring for a child with disability, delay or Autism is filled with love but can also be exhausting when you’re constantly giving so much of yourself. If you’re feeling stretched thin, emotionally drained, or running on empty... you are not alone.  

Join this MyTime peer group to explore what carer burn out really is, learn practical strategies to gently reduce stress and advocate for yourself without guilt.  
 
This MyTime session is for you—a space to pause, exhale, and feel understood. There will be opportunities to ask questions, share your experiences, and connect with other parents and carers who are sharing a similar journey. 

PLEASE NOTE: DUE TO PRIVACY CONSIDERATIONS THESE SESSIONS ARE NOT RECORDED.

This event is facilitated by Kristy 

Kristy is the proud parent of Dash, an inquisitive, gentle-hearted, and wonderfully funny 8-year-old. Dash is Autistic, has ADHD, and global development delay. Kristy likes to say that Dash "got it from his Mama", as she identifies as AuDHD herself. A passionate advocate for her family, Kristy thrives as a parent peer facilitator, dedicated to sharing her insights, celebrating neurodivergent joy, and connecting with other families on a similar journey.
