Play Panda
Social Club
Where Neurodivergent Children can feel safe ​
and supported to build the connections they deserve.​​​
​
At Play Panda Social Club, we understand how overwhelming relationship building with peers can feel for neurodivergent children - that's why we want to make that experience safe and fun, so no child feels socially isolated.​​ Sessions are low-demand with individualised accomodations included to ensure your child feels safe enough to engage in social interactions and autonomy in their play.
