• Discuss activity matching: Be clear about interests and comfort levels. A good provider should listen and suggest suitable local options, not a one-size-fits-all program.
• Consider proximity for consistency: A provider based in or frequently working in Fig Tree Pocket can offer more flexible and responsive support, which is crucial for building routine and confidence.
