SANDE Bridge Program
Kindergarten Support Services
At Infinite Pathways Psychology, we deliver the SANDE Bridge program in kindergarten settings. This neuroaffirming, strengths-based program supports young children to build social and emotional understanding, confidence and a sense of belonging. Delivered onsite, it can be integrated into kindergarten routines in a way that is practical for educators and supportive for children.
SANDE Bridge supports children of all neurotypes to recognise their own ways of thinking and being, understand others and build an inclusive culture of acceptance and belonging.
