For Families
Support that fits your family
You know your child better than anyone. We build a plan around what you're already seeing — not a template, and never a stranger showing up unsupervised.
The problem, plainly
You've probably already tried a lot.
Maybe you've been told to "wait and see." Maybe you've had a specialist who never quite explained the plan, or an LSA who was lovely but disappeared after a term. You're not looking for another vague promise — you want someone who listens first, explains clearly, and stays accountable for how your child is actually doing.
What we do
Clinical rigour, genuine follow-through.
One point of contact
A clinical lead who knows your child's file, not a rotating call centre.
Matched, not assigned
We match the specialist to your child's needs and your family's routine — home, school or centre.
Supervised, always
Every LSA, tutor and therapist works under clinical oversight, with regular review.
Progress you can see
Goals set with you, tracked over time, reviewed together — not left to guesswork.

In their words
“For the first time we had someone explain what was actually happening with our son, not just a plan handed to us.”

Questions you're probably asking.
- How much does support cost?
- It depends on which service your child needs — LSA or shadow teacher hours, therapy sessions, or a combination. We'll give you a clear estimate after understanding your child's situation, never a fixed package.
- Does health insurance cover any of this?
- Many UAE health insurance plans contribute toward therapy hours; classroom LSA support is less commonly covered. We'll help you check what your specific plan includes.
- Do I need a diagnosis before reaching out?
- No. We can begin support in parallel with a formal assessment process, and adjust once a diagnosis is confirmed.
- How quickly can support start?
- After an initial consultation, most families begin within one to two weeks once we've matched the right specialist and confirmed availability.
- What makes Special Minds different from other agencies?
- Every LSA, tutor and therapist reports to a clinical lead, not just an account manager — so support is supervised and reviewed, never left to run on its own.
