Guidebook Services
A picture is worth a thousand words — and photos with captions of your loved one with special needs or a complex medical diagnosis can give school staff, nurses, therapists, and others a quick, meaningful glimpse into who they are. It’s a powerful way to help caregivers understand how best to support your loved one — and it sure beats reading a 54-page IEP!
Karen has created multiple versions of the “Natalie Guidebook” over the years and can design a personalized guidebook for your loved one, too.

Guidebook Testimonials
"Working as a nurse in a school program dedicated to children with special needs, I know how crucial it is to have resources that truly understand our students. This guidebook is one of the best I’ve seen—it’s clear, compassionate, and full of practical advice that supports both children and the adults who care for them. It bridges the gap between medical, emotional, and educational needs in a way that’s genuinely helpful. I recommend it to every caregiver and educator I meet."
— Jennifer M., DNP, RN, Special Needs School Nurse
"Natalie's guidebook is an invaluable tool to becoming familiar with how to care for her safely and efficiently. It was so useful to instantly have vital background information and tips from those who knew her best all in one place. I loved that I could continue to refer to it as needed until I got to know Natalie better myself. The pictures and messages in the book were not only informative and extremely helpful but also like a friendly welcome to Natalie's care team!"
— Susan V., Private Duty Nurse
