It's been 2 years since my daughter's diagnosis (she's 9 nine now), although we had been suspecting for sometime. We had to do virtual kindergarten at the height of the pandemic, which was an absolute nightmare. I wish these resources were available and/or someone had pointed them out to me. Everyone is different, so if you have any other suggestions on where to start perhaps you could put them in the comments below. I hope this helps someone. Wishing you all the very best.

Parent to Parent: Introduction to ADHD, Parents and family members will learn what ADHD is, how ADHD is diagnosed and what everyone should know about ADHD:

First Approach Skills Training: Behavior Basics, An on-demand, self-paced class for parents and caregivers of children ages 5 to 12 with disruptive behaviors. This is a consolidation of the skills from their "Superparenting" program which is a course for parents that spun off of "The Incredible Years" - which is a great resource, but thick. Check with your pediatrician, request a referral to a behaviorist, and inquire if there are any parenting programs offered that are covered by your insurance.

Here are a few other info-graphics that are to the point to help you feel empowered and supported:
