Meeting Claire<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
When we told Faga he’d be meeting a friend of mine, he was open and even a little excited. After his first session, he kept asking when he’d see Claire again. That told us everything, he felt understood and safe in a way we hadn’t seen before.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As the sessions progressed, it became clear he needed more intensive support, which meant travelling to spend a full week with Claire. He was excited but unsure. At one point he asked, “Mum, is something wrong with me? Why do we have to stay for a week?”<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n We reassured him: nothing is wrong. He learns differently. This was about understanding how his mind works and giving him the tools to grow and build confidence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n That conversation changed things, not just for his learning, but for how he sees himself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n At the end of term, Faga received five principal awards across mathematics, physical education, ancient histories, science, and engineering. For a child who once struggled to stay focused in class, that’s a remarkable outcome.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Seeing the Davis Method work for Faga inspired something bigger. His mother Lili’a and a Samoan friend are now seeking community funding to train as Davis Facilitators themselves \u2014 so they can bring this support to others in the Samoan language. That’s the kind of impact that goes well beyond one family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you’re looking for autism help for your child, a Davis Facilitator could be the right next step.
