Sunshine Daycare (Autistic Daycare)

About: Sunshine Daycare is a daycare meant for autistic individuals. The caretakers are all very informed and sweet, trying to encourage the people to be themselves. This is referred to as a "daycare" because all food, needs, etc are provided and because the caregivers watch over students who need full-time support.

Demographics: various adults come to the daycare for different needs. There are different rooms based on what support an individual might need. The Daycare is wheelchair and mobility aid accessible for those who may need it

Rooms: each room has everything for that type of need. The spaces are very cozy and have plenty of things to play with for any age range. The Yellow Room is more for bright, fun play and loud stimming and often for louder, high support autistics. The Blue room is for when someone wants it dark/dim and minimal noise and for naps. And the Purple Room is for a calmer, but still very interactive, middle ground. The floors have nice padding and carpet for comfort and to help with soundproofing. Rooms use soft, natural lights and don't have harsh colors, sounds, or lights.

Toys: general toys include swings made from soft fabrics you can also nap in, stim toys for your hands, eyes, and mouth, and soft plushies. There is also a community wall of various textured fabrics and such for people to play with and feel.

More: all are encouraged to talk about their interests with peers. Some coping strategies are available, such as how to help with meltdowns, socializing in places you're not used to, ways to incorporate coping strategies into your life, etc. Sunshine Daycare is for all adults and stages of life and being autistic is seen as a positive thing, never negative.

Caregivers: there's Mr. Greene, Miss Daisy, Mrs. Kelly, and Mr. Grey as the main caregivers, though there are many more! There is also Nurse Callie for any help with injuries or mental health. All caregivers are also autistic or neurodivergent

Types of support: some people at the daycare are "high support needs", meaning they need extra care to help them. Either with being nonverbal, needing help getting dressed, eating, or anything else. Some people are "low support needs", meaning they are able to generally care for themselves but may need help from time to time. Students who cannot speak are given extra time to write, type, or use other methods of communication and not forced to talk
